I got back from a long flight You said you'd meet me there I've been tripping off constellations and stars I found you at home, what was our home With another man, oh man Been keeping you in my heart And so I whispered into your ear "What are you thinking about?" You just looked up at the stars And so I whispered into your ear "Who are you thinking about?" It couldn't be me You can't look me in my eyes anymore Without the rivers to tend Because you remember our love was true But you just needed a hand And you can't look me in my eyes anymore Without yourself to defend You know you hurt me so bad Just 'cause you needed a hand And I went off and saw things I've never seen I really wanted you there But you ruined what was love Just 'cause you needed a hand Just 'cause you needed a hand This is the way that it all falls This is how I feel This is what I need You, by me, right here, by me Right now And so I whispered into your ear "What are you thinking about?" You just looked up at the stars And so I whispered into your ear "Who are you thinking about?" It couldn't be me You can't look me in my eyes anymore Without the rivers to tend 'Cause you remember our love was true But you just needed a hand And you can't look me in my eyes anymore Without yourself to defend You know you hurt me so bad Just 'cause you needed a hand And I went off and saw things I've never seen I really wanted you there But you ruined what was love Just 'cause you needed a hand Just 'cause you needed a hand
