about

WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT?
It's complicated enough being a human being without the challenge of having to understand other human beings as well. We are driven to form relationships at the same time as trying to discover ourselves as individuals . Ouch! Good luck to us all. we need it!

lyrics

WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT?

Same kind of conversation day after day
How can she listen to what he can never say?
Same kind of conversation time and again
How can she understand what he can’t explain.
And who would have thought they’d know where to begin?
He can’t get out. She can’t get in.
Who would have thought they’d have so much to say?
She stands and screams. He walks away.

Same kind of conversation week after week.
She tries to listen he tries to speak.
Same kind of conversation same old regret.
He can’t remember what she can’t forget.
And who would have thought they would still try to guess
What she can’t hold in and he can’t express?
Who would have thought they’d have so much to say?
She stands and screams. He walks away.

Same kind of conversation year after year.
He sings a song of love that she can never hear.
Same kind of conversation. Some kind of violence.
She whips him with her words. He binds her with his silence.
Who would have thought there’d be wounds left to feel?
What cannot be hurt cannot be healed.
Who would have thought they’d have so much to say
She stands and screams. He walks away.

Sometimes at midnight they sheltered from the storm.
With whiskey and whispers they kept each other warm.
Two lovers in a bottle safe from the squall.
A painless concoction of sex and alcohol.
And who would have thought they’d wake up in the end
No longer lovers and not really friends?
And who would have thought they’d have so much to say?
She stands and screams he walks away.
And who would have thought there’d be dreams left to dream
She walks away. He starts to scream…
