Alan Lauris - Stood Over There lyrics

Music: Alan Lauris Lyrics: John Coughlan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't worry no, don't worry that my eyes seem dim Don't worry that they're slightly pink around the rim I know it's unnerving that my vision's unswerving But I'm wearing only one of my faces The one I wear when I'm in two places My body is here but I'm stood over there That's why my features stare And they don't seem to care 'Cause I'm stood over there Stood over there Don't worry, sometimes I'm still talking Don't worry that sometimes I'm still walking I know your brain's addling 'Cause I seem to be straddling In a way you'll never understand Impossible? Yes, but on the other hand... My body is here but I'm stood over there That's why my features stare And they don't seem to care 'Cause I'm stood over there Stood over there Don't worry 'Bout this strange demeanour Radiating Emanating Often puzzling Sometimes grating My mind's busy scanning, panning Under the surface, behind their eyes Sifting memories, truth and lies Lifting the lid on self-delusions Illuminating dark confusions Reinforcing their mental supports Tip-toeing around innermost thoughts Don't hurry, no don't hurry, I'm concentrating Don't hurry I need to see what I'm creating I have to be so calm otherwise I might cause harm Standing in such close proximity Builds up a charge of true affinity
