Fragile Things

Thank you ma'am for asking Yes I'm on my own I guess it's kind of obvious I'm eating here alone I'm grateful for the company Tired of talking to myself Don't you look into my eyes You might see someone else I've been to see a movie About a man who saved the world Had the same old happy ending Where the hero gets the girl And all I ever wanted Was to be that hero too Then I might still be with her Instead of here with you Love is a small and fragile thing I spend a lot of cold nights missing you Keep it in your hands or let it take wing I spend a lot of cold nights missing you Thank you for your time ma'am I'm gonna go and walk I might as well do that Because I'm running out of talk I could walk a thousand miles tonight And never find my place At least until it gets too light To hide my tearful face Love is a small and fragile thing I spend a lot of cold nights missing you Keep it in your hands or let it take wing I spend a lot of cold nights missing you I spend a lot of cold nights missing you There's a low ballet on the highway Brief faces in the light I catch them for a second Heading somewhere in the night And we have no connection But the darkness and the road I better find a place tonight I better call it home Love is a small and fragile thing I spend a lot of cold nights missing you Keep it in your hands or let it take wing I spend a lot of cold nights missing you I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
