Lyrics
TALKING TO MYSELF
I?ve been talking to myself nearly all the time
It?s a great big hairy full blown scary thing to do
and that?s just fine by me
and I tell me what to do and I listen to me too
I?m getting stranger every day I?m away from you.
And the part of me that fit around you
was alone when you left
but it grew and it grew and it grew
Winters up here make a strange kind of folk
we grow pale and white from living inside
and we?re bluer than most
I didn?t grow these wings for diamond rings
I grew ?em to fly high onto other things than you
I?ve been talking to myself nearly all the time
It?s a great big hairy full blown scary thing to do
and that?s just fine by me
and I tell me what to do and I listen to me too
I?m getting stranger every day I?m away from you
And the part of me that fit around you
was alone when you left
but it grew and it grew and it grew
