Disappointment Lyrics



Disappointment

gets to me so easily.

I tell myself that nothing's wrong

but nothing's like it used to be.

I walk down streets where I've been before



but they're not the same to me anymore.

Big moon rising

shining through my window pane.

I get up to put my clothes on

I lose my nerve I'm back again.

Something holds me from behind

Moves in like a fog every time.



Well I'm sorry I just can't seem

to get it back again.

I'm falling on my face a lot.

I don't know who to blame.



Do you remember

the room we shared on Grand St.

We'd lie there in the afternoons

drifting in and out of sleep.

Let our minds just float away

nowhere to be and nothing much to say.



Well I'm floating around in space

nothing holds me in.

I know I always call you up

when I'm in trouble again.



I've watched

as dreams have come and gone.

I try to change

I'm still my father's son.

Now I wait

I wait and let it come.

Let it come.



Disappointment

gets to me so easily.

A crowded room and smoky lights

used to be enough for me.

Now my patience is wearing thin

to wake up from this dream I'm living in.



I'm sorry I just can't seem

to get it back again.

I'm falling on my face a lot.

There is no one here to blame.



I've watched

as dreams have come and gone.

I try to change

I'm still my father's son.

Now I wait

I wait and let it come.

Let it come
