a-ha Follow

(Pal Waaktaar)

I find it hard to breathe

As life just eats away

At the faces that surround me

They look tired today

The lady at my table

Doesn't want me here

I just want to talk to her

But would she laugh at my accent

And make fun of me

It doesn't seem like this

Blue sky's here for me

There are no girls in here

As far as I can see

Only pin-up posters

Looking down at me

Watching papercups of coffee

Growing cold before my eyes

All the things I see

That make me realize

I'm in this big world without you

Nothing to my name

I never knew that

Blue sky meant such pain

I'm dying to be different

In the coffee shop

I've lived on borrowed strength

Now my supplies are cut

Though i'm older than my looks

And older than my years

I'm too young to take on

My deepest fears

Oh, I used to be confused

But now I just don't know

Since you left I've been watching

Blue skies come and go
