In Lieu Of You

Family Shiloh

Compositor: Não Disponível

I learned how to twiddle my thumbs now like a champion
And I picked up a new language by talking to the wind
I can walk the floor like that Texas troubadour
And I'm too busy watching time pass by, for pastimes with my friends

In lieu of you, there's a lot that I can do
I'm occupied with many nights I've cried
I'm all booked up with hours that I'll look up at the Moon
Wondering what I'll do in lieu of you

Well, I hardly even understand what time is
So I don't know if time's been kind or if it's on my side
Cause I keep turning back the clock to see if I can find us
But I wind up reminding myself I'm too occupied

In lieu of you, there's a lot that I can do
I'm occupied with many nights I've cried
I'm all booked up with hours that I'll look up at the Moon
Wondering what I'll do in lieu of you

In lieu of you I'm lonesome
But I hope some day you'll be
Missing out on someone who keeps himself busy
Wondering what you do in lieu of me

In lieu of you, there's a lot that I can do
I'm occupied with many nights I've cried
I'm all booked up with hours that I'll look up at the Moon
Wondering what I'll do in lieu of you
