I know
I haven't been so good at sharing the way I feel
But having a silence, between us,
Doesn't make what we felt less real
Close the door,
Turn off the lights
You've got me waiting, dreaming all night
But it's you
Words
I've always been cautious to sow them from the start
But now that they're planted,
You don't know if you want it
So let go of my heart
Close the door,
Turn off the lights,
You've got me waiting, dreaming all night
But it's you
Hold me close or keep me at a distance
Can't keep playing cards with my emotions
What you want: it could be anything but I'm
Blind to the light,
I see only what I want and keep this hope alive
Am I too young
To get it together?
Am I enough
To keep a good love from
Falling out of sight?
Close the door,
Turn off the lights,
You've got me waiting, dreaming all night
But it's you
You

Some days I feel I could sleep forever
But then again, when I'm up I stay up all night
You can't just reach me any ol' time,
Chances are, I've got something in mind
Simmer down, it'll be just fine --
(Chorus)
I've got a car and it runs alright,
And that's good, good enough for me
This is not how I thought it would all play out
When they asked me where I wanted to be....
When I turned 33
One day, all alone in the stormy weather
Could have the boys and the girls lining up all night
But you can't just do whatever you like,
Sometimes you'll find the time isn't right
Simmer down, it'll be just fine --
(Chorus)
I've got a girl, she's around sometimes
And that's good, good enough for me
This is not how I thought it would all play out
When they asked me where I wanted to be....
Asked me where I wanted to be
When I turned 33
You can't just reach me any ol' time,
Chances are, I've got something in mind
Simmer down it'll be just fine....
(Chorus)
I've got a girl, she's around sometimes
And that's good, good enough for me
This is not how I thought it would all play out
When they asked me where I wanted to be....
Asked me where I wanted to be
When I turned 33

I miss my mama dearly
Though I can see her nearly
But I can't hold her to me
And she can't see me speak
We walk along the seaside
Papa ahead, or behind
Masks covering our faces
Gloves covering our hands
(I miss home, all the time we spent, all the time alone)
We walk along the seaside
Washed to the shore at high tide
We send our love remotely, but it's not as satisfying
We send our love remotely, but it's not as satisfying

One more time,
I find a little more as I unwind
A part that's rarely ever seen the light
One by one,
I gather glimpses of the good I've done
I stop to think about how far I've come
I see me better when I'm not alone
Patience, pleasure, money and time -
All the things I hoped were mine
Maybe all I really need
Is hidden right in front of me
It's alright,
I have her love and so does she have mine
It isn't fair to keep it tethered down
But all these changes haven't been a breeze
A fickle fantasy of flawless ease
We're working hard to make it through the night
I hold the hope that we will be alright
We just want a little time
You be yours and I'll be mine
Leave the silver cage behind
Put it on the mantle for a while
All this time I couldn't see
What was right in front of me --
In the end I'd rather be
Ruled by hope instead of fear
The spark becomes a flame,
And there's no one else to blame
But that doesn't stop it burning all the same
We clashed and then we cried,
Drove you home without a fight
Still I hoped that I would hear from you tonight

Hutson has proven time-and-again to possess that rarest of gifts: a talent for creating music of the moment, whatever that moment may be. ... more
