Story Behind The Song
i'd just split up from a long term relationship and it was a big shock - i'd thought we'd be married one day. a lot of fear and dissappointment came up. the only thing that brought relief from the pain of it was to let go of that relationship, and what i'd expected life to
be.
Song Description
it's about how strong the attatchment is to think
we know everything and view everything to suit us -
especially about other people. And the immense love
and release that lies behind letting that strong hold
on our views go.

Lyrics
TALKING TO YOU
I am talking to you, i will pretend i know you
I don't know you, i think i know you
but i i have an image i will defend, about you
all in my mind, i believe it's true
And when i am seeing with my eyes true
everything is beautiful
everything i ever desired
All in my heart, i can see it's true
hee eee yeah.....
'Cause why would i be wanting?
I can see it in myself
why would i try hard,
to make it something else?
Why keep up a long fight
to make you anything other than you are?
you are perfect,
when i'm just talking to you
And when i am seeing with my eyes true
everything is beautiful
everything i ever desired
all in my heart i can see it's true.
