Barney (...and Me) Lyrics

It sounds right, and better still if you add some heavy distortion going
into the second verse.
Corrections, additions, ETC (if applicable) are welcome.
Barney & Me - The Boo Radleys
(words and music by Martin Carr)
from the album "Giant Steps"
Intro:
Now it's getting colder
My hands chilled to the bone
I watch your breath and trace it's steps
as it mingles with my own
Lake is almost frozen
The grass is silver hair
The wind is high in the blue sky
I wish that I could care
I recall when we were younger,
we shared the streets of home
spoke of our dreams and soaring schemes
of places we would go
If I stay around much longer
I'll never leave again
I have to move, I cannot stay
Believe the voice that tells me leave it
(chorus)
(all behind me)I know that I, I know that I am wrong
(all behind me)I'll never leave now, it has been too long
And...
Now I'm getting older,
I still can't find the words
To empathize with what's inside,
express the way I feel
Now I'm getting older,
it's easier to hide,
To run away, don't have to stay
betray the voice that tells me leave it
(play chorus once, then:)
(all behind me)I know that I, I know that I am wrong
(all behind me)I'll can't escape now, it has been too long
Faye Dunaway
