When i wanted you, you faked it What does it take to really make it with you. anyway Now you're so far away I'm on the porch The night's a throne I'm sitting on it, all alone And it wasn't that hard to tell I can't hide that kind of thing very well And you always say you know what i'm thinking, anyway I'm on the porch The night's a throne I'm sitting on it, all alone And the oak tree And the river And the train And the wind makes them sound just the same And the train takes my crown into the night And the moon takes my scepter for its light But i'm not much for distances But i know what the difference is Between my heart and my brain And my heart wins just the same I'm on the porch The night's a throne I'm sitting on it, all alone And i'm not much for distances But i know what the difference is Between my heart and my brain And my heart wins just the same I'm on the porch The night's a throne I'm sitting on it, all alone Yeah, yeah, yeah
