Waiting for Brenda - Barnard's Star

Hours of darkness have crept into your living room
Days of joy have walked along your street
Your Siamese cat is now reading Japanese
But still somehow you won't admit defeat.

You've caused a lot of pain
You've everything to gain
Your memory stays the same
But you can't see …….
What you see in me

The camera takes a picture of your smile
Like Barnard's star it's 6 light years away
Your thoughts are going nowhere
Just on birthday cards
And you don't believe a single word you say

You've caused a lot of pain
You've everything to gain
Your memory stays the same
But you can't see …….
What you see in me

Neon signs illuminate your destiny
But where you live there's only stars at night
You've raptured in a horror scope of loneliness
And carbonated copies fly as kites

You've caused a lot of pain
You've everything to gain
Your memory stays the same
But you can't see …….
What you see in me
