For No One

I've got my own phantoms
at the bottom
in this sea of thought
but there's one that sits
in the center looking out

she hides her eyes
behind her dark hair
she keeps me guessing
she keeps me floating in air

i dont mind it
whenever she comes around
and when she speaks
it's a haunting and beautiful sound
god i wish i had a way with words

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i wish i had a better way with words
but everything i said is deja entendu
it's nothin new to you

where i started you wouldn't believe
i started empty and dry
but then words bled out of me as my fingers cried

with one click i was back where i started
i ended up not knowing what i was trying to say
i didnt know the message i was trying to convey

was it love, thanks or some off-beat romance
i really cant be too sure
it's not something i can learn

if there was a way to wrap memory in paper
and hand it to you just like that
it would say everything i needed without lack
