lyrics

Can We turn the conversation 'round to you again?
You got a funny way of avoiding all my questions
And it always ends the same
Because you're brilliant at this game
I'm watchin' and learnin', this time I'm not giving in

I'm not looking for a beautiful confession
I'm not asking you to go the extra mile
Just a break from all these millions of distractions
Or maybe just sit quiet for a while

You never want to be the center of attention
It would kill you if you thought you were a burden
I'm not a maiden in a tower
I'm not a delicate rare flower
You might find that I can handle what you're carrying

I'm not looking for a beautiful confession
I'm not asking you to go the extra mile
Just a break from all these millions of distractions
Or maybe just sit quiet for a while
