all the phones in the street were ringing
when i met the real you
i had to look closely
the way the satellites do
i shouldn't love you but i do
you left such a simple clue
a long time ago
i had a little place on earth
down by the riverside
though things have changed inside
i think of it sometimes
i shouldn't know you but i do
i was searching for the light
in a long darkened room
a chalk bird in a honey sky
when i met the real you
there is no place i can hide
now i know the reason why
i shouldn't love you but i do
you left such a simple clue
a long time ago
