I've been picturing <br />I've been imagining <br />This night <br />For years since I last saw you <br />Why don't you <br />Why don't you say the things <br />That I wanted you to <br /> <br />I've been creating <br />I've been dreaming <br />This moment <br />In your absense, but <br />You don't look quite <br />You don't speak quite <br />Like I wanted you to <br /> <br />Nine years of longing <br />Nine years of planning <br />Now that it's happening <br />You don't feel quite <br />You don't seem quite <br />Like I wanted you to <br /> <br />I don't know what to do <br />I don't know what to do anymore <br />Pinned all my hope on you <br />Been pinning all my hope on you <br />Like I thought <br />You wanted me to do <br /> <br />I'm stalled on the motorway <br />Between all I used to know <br />And all I was headed for <br />I'm stalled on the motorway <br />Not headed anywhere, anymore... <br /> <br />(2009)<br /><br />B..
