Not Exactly

I am sad alright

But what a waste of time

I held you much too close

And now there`s something missing

But i can`t see the empty space

Something else has taken place

I am sad alright

But what a waste of tears

I held you much too close

And now there`s someone missing

She is gone without a trace

Just the expression on her face:

What a waste

There`s a flame and a fire and a body burning up

And a bird on a shape made of steel ohoh

He keeps on singing



It`s not exactly what you think

Not exactly what you see

Not exactly what you`ve learned

And what you will be learning



I am sad alright

But what a waste of breath

I`m only talking to relieve

Although there`s noone listening

He is gone without a trace

Just the expression on his face:

Who`s to blame?

There`s a flame and a fire and a body burning up

And a bird on a shape made of steel, ohoh

He keeps on singing



It`s not exactly what you think

Not exactly what you see

Not exactly what you`ve learned

And what you will be learning
