Chamillionare - After Da Dappa 2k1 lyrics

(Nanci Griffith)

You pace the pool and talk about it

I read my book and think about it

You've walked on water as I'm turning the page

You say,"What's the intrigue here ... in reading when the sky is clear?"

You are in the sun and I am always in the shade

Chorus

It's too late to leave you

You know that I will never leave you

It's too late to know you

You don't like to be known

You would never hold me

I don't like to be held

I will always love you

In spite of myself

I can feel the weather changing

The leaves are tired and turned with anger

They fall around us like a veil of tears

You have never needed me and I'm not good at being needed

This season will be leaving us but we will still be here

Chorus

Do you miss me when I'm far away

Do you save me for your rainy days?

Is my picture on the mantle ... or is it in the fire?

It's odd the way the years fly by they leave us standing side by side

You have been my mystery and I've been your desire
