Landmarks

In forgotten corners
Of little known streets
I tried to put distance
Between you and me

I went to find refuge
In doorways of dawn
The cold empty chill
And the night's almost gone

Look at me, I'm not so far away
Don't keep your love to yourself
Go around in circles every day
Don't keep your love to yourself

On look-alike rooftops
With views all the same
I stared out from edges
And spoke your name

I checked all the faces
Pasted on people
For the kind of emotion
That you make me feel

Look at me, I'm not so far away
Don't keep your love to yourself
Go around in circles every day
Don't keep your love to yourself

All the landmarks that I used to know
Seem to point another way to go
Changes coming up on me so fast
I won't wander where I can't get back
No, no, no, no, no

I tried killing time
With obsolete weapons
The newspaper headlines
Won't keep my attention

And nothing can touch me
On little known streets
The ones that curve gently
Back where we meet
