Too late to understand
Too soon to hold a hand
I sometimes think she’s living in a dream
Tell all the pretty girls
Their minds in other worlds
I’ve only seen it on the silver screen
A line that’s taken from a page
Turns into something you would say
You’re standing on a wire
Up by the reservoir
But you don’t seem to feel the breeze at all
Not even sure you know
If just one tiny blow
Should kiss your side then you would fall
And all the playground games we played
The child dares don’t go away
I never said you couldn’t understand
I just said you live in a wonderland
And if you tumble and fall back down to earth
I’ll still be standing here
Her words like dying vines
Lost all their vital signs
The twisting of the whisper’s such a shame
The friends all told their friends
The meanings got the bends
And never once did they return the same
And when they finally reached the end
They came back round to her again
I never said you couldn’t understand
I just said you live in a wonderland
And if you tumble and fall back down to earth
I’ll still be standing here
