A Feeling That Never Came

It's funny how it happened How fast your world can change It's funny how you tricked me And how you keep fooling yourself It's funny how I believed you then When you said we all try our best I loved you, I did, but I've put that notion to rest It's all a shifting perspective A different point of view Can still picture the perfect image of you I go back there time and time again Looks I stole when you weren't watching I stood at the corner, solemn in the rain Waiting for something, a feeling that never came Now I keep looking over my shoulder Like somehow you'd still be around I'm stuck in my own thoughts Keep walking the streets of this town What scares me most is this ghost of you and me Is it all in my head? I loved you, I did, but now that doesn't matter It's all a shifting perspective A different point of view Can still rewrite the story if I wanted to I go back there time and time again Looks I stole when you weren't watching I stood at the corner, solemn in the rain Waiting for something, a feeling that never came I got too drunk and embarrassed myself Thought I'd be enough if I was someone else Kissed in the sweet sweltering heat On Bowery or maybe Delancey Street Got kicked out of the bar and we headed west I loved you, I did, but I've put that all to rest Stood at the corner, solemn in the rain Waiting for something, a feeling that never came Waiting for anything, a feeling that never came Waiting for something, a feeling that never came
