It Aint With Me
Words & Music by Thomas Tognaci
The lights are on, is there no one home?
I see a flickering light
Where have you gone? Am I on my own
with you high as a kite?
Youre always somewhere else, my darling
Somewhere lost in the stars
Maybe lost between our worlds
but wherever you are
it aint with me
The social scene with all its pretense
has always been something more you
The wolves convene and you jump the fence
to get a better view
Youre always there to spar, my darling
Its never us, or we
Its always you against the world
And, while you always agree
it aint with me
A once upon a long time ago
I fell for love and a face
We came undone in the undertow
and washed up in this place
Youre always to and fro, my darling
The changing tides, you say
You may come and go as you please
but if you come to stay
it aint with me
