lyrics

It goes without saying
You are with me in my dreams,
The record lingers on

When I go walking
I can feel your hand in mine
The record skips a beat

When I go driving
I don’t go past your place
Someone new lives there

When I’m selecting,
I play all your favourite songs
Hoping you might hear

Are you in, or
Are you out
Are you living in?
A poor house

I tried to be reckless,
But I didn’t have the heart
Some people never change

I tried to write new songs, but
The lyrics stayed the same
Like symbols carved in stone

Sometimes I get wasted,
To see how far I’ll fall
It’s never far enough

When I wake trembling
I call out your name,
It’s the only thing that helps.

Are you in, or
Are you out
Are you living in?
A poor house
