lyrics

The Great Manipulator
(M. Baltzer)

Is twenty seven seconds out of your vision,
Sufficient time to forget me forever?
Does my constant presence outside your window,
Ensure that you fall asleep never?
I am nothing if not your servant -
I am nothing if not your last friend.

When the winter-me bids you a silent goodbye will you call me?
When the winter-me bids you a silent goodbye will you cry?
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
The road to heaven is drenched in heartache and pain.
So let me enjoy this last look a little longer -
Before the summer is over and you have gone away.

I was hoping to see a rainbow so I could I tell you about it.
I has hoping to see you this evening so I’d know that you never forget it.
I am nothing without your presence.
I am nothing if not joined at the wrist.
When the party is over and your friends say goodbye will you call me?
When the party is over and your friends say goodbye will you cry?
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
The road to heaven is drenched in heartache and pain
So let me enjoy this last look a little longer
Before the summer is over and you have blown away

There’s a path up the hill by the side of the road
And where it leads to is where everyone goes
There’s a path up the hill by the side of the road
And where we’re going now is what nobody knows
