about

Just me and the Mellotron :)

lyrics

She's looking for love
Through the face of her cell phone
Divine and lonely in her plastic world

What she’s pining for
She hardly understands
The compromise
The touch of my hand

She's Yearning
Yearning
Burning
For love

And I know
I know
She'll always be just beyond my grasp
In the here and now or in the past

Just a young doll princess
Inside her playroom
Just holding
My arms at bay



Romantic comedy
Playing out the lie
The intensity
In her wanting eyes
A window view
To a vacant lot

She's Yearning
Yearning
Burning
For love

And I know
I know
She'll always be just beyond my grasp
In the here and now or in the past

She’s looking for love
Yet she’ll never find it
All alone in these woods
Of sadness

Lost forever
In expectancy
With the ghost of what
She doesn’t see
Her and me
