Samantha Lyrics

In a short lived stolen moment between coming from and going

On the island of Manhattan where the strangest things can happen

You'll be sitting sipping coffee looking pretty as always

And the sight of you will stop me in my tracks

Oh Samantha, I had plans but

Never knew they needed saying

Oh Samantha, I wrote anthems

Just to drown the sound of waiting

Well I'll ask about your work and you'll ask me how my tours been

And we'll toss those softball questions for a while

But too many years divided can only lead to forced politeness

Check your watch and leave me with a smile

Oh Samantha, I had plans but

Never knew they needed saying

Oh Samantha, I wrote anthems

Just to drown the sound

No need to be forthright

Seem you had a nice life

And I did too

But in the back of my mind

In another timeline

I had a better one with you

Samantha, I had plans but

Never knew that needed saying

Oh Samantha, I wrote anthems

Just to drown the sound

Just to drown the sound
