The Air Through My Hands Lyrics

Now and then I imagine you call

And tell me you've been lost without me

You say men just don't know you at all

And I'm the only one who can really see

You say, "I've got to have you tonight and I don't care who knows it."

You say, "Yeah, I've got to have you alright."

Just then the merciless wind blows it away

And you disappear in fading strands

You vanish like the air through my hands

I found a birthday card you made for me

From paper and love and ink

It said, "I love you endlessly."

What an amazing thing to think

When I picture your face in my mind

I have to admit that anger swells

When I think of how you left me behind

I have to fight off the funeral bells

I know

You could never love someone who never understands

So you vanish like the air through my hands

Am I dreaming when I hear you say

"Come to me tonight and love me like you used to"?

Am I crying when I hear you say

"We could never be together like we used to"?

You tell me

Now and then I imagine you call

And tell me you've been lost without me

You say men just don't know you at all

And I'm the only one who could ever see

You say, "I've got to have you tonight and I don't care who knows it."

You say, "Yeah, I've got to have you alright."

Just then the merciless wind blows it away

And you disappear in fading strands

You vanish like the air through my hands
