Well I Know You’re Lonely Now Lyrics by Karen Black

Dreaming of You (1971-76)

0

Well, I know you're lonely now
I am staying where you left me like a bird returns in spring
To find his nest empty, no more flight
You were wrong, but then again, I wasn’t right
You can hear my footsteps clear
In the darkness they approach you
But of course, there's no one near
You are hidden like a blackbird in the night
You are blind but, oh, my dear, I have no sight
We could start it up again
You could tell me that I'm crazy
I would say, "But I’m your friend"
You would say my vision's hazy, and you're right
Still, I see you watching there all through the night
Come to my door
Through the dark and solemn streets
Though our lives may turn to ashes and our hearts will be complete
Walk from your door, oh, my darling, let's be fools
For the fool is always wisest
He just never told his truths
If we should begin again
I will love you for no reason
For the seasons make no sense
They just come and go like shadows in the night
We will love, if we are wrong
Or we are right
