It went right by me --    At the time it went over my head    I was looking out the window    I should have looked at your face instead       It went right by me --    Just another wall    There should have been a moment    When we let our barriers fall    I never meant what you're thinking --    That is not what I meant at all...       Well I guess we all have these feelings    We can't leave unreconciled    Some of them burned on our ceilings    Some of them learned as a child       The things that we're concealing    Will never let us grow    Time will do its healing    You've got to let it go       Closed for my protection --    Open to your scorn    Between these two directions    My heart is sometimes torn       I lie awake with my secrets    spinning around my head    something that somehow escaped me --    Something you shouldn't have said    I was looking out the window    I should have looked at your face instead...       I find no absolution    In my rational point of view    Maybe some things are instinctive    But there's one thing you could do    You could try to understand me --    I could try to understand you...
