Still Life Lyrics

Am I lyin' through my grin? Am I driftin'?
Am I really just a child of sin?
Oh, I don't know what to do
Have I lost myself to lust?
Is there anyone that I can trust?
We tried to make the best of us
But I don't know what to do

Baby, I'd tell you more
If I knew just what to say
But you never asked me anyway
Baby, I'd ask for less
If I knew I had your ear
And every other part of you

Baby blue's the color of my eyes, I'm told
But when the sun sinks low, my eyes turn gold
And you don't know what to do
Yellow is the color of the winter moon
And the page I press my pencil to
With a love letter to you

Baby, I'd tell you more
If I knew just what to say
But you never asked me anyway
Baby, I'd ask for less
If I knew I had your ear
And every other part of you
(Every other part of you)

Every other part of you
(Every other part of you)
Every other part of you
(Every other part of you)
Every other part of you
(Every other part of you)
Every other part of you
(Every other part of you)
(Every other part of you)

What I need from you, my friend, is a kiss
Then a walk to where the sidewalk ends
At the reservoir, and then
Underneath the city sky, we're a still life
And all the people pass us by
And they don't know what to do

Baby, I'd ask for less
If I knew I had your ear
And every other part of you
