Found Wanting Lyrics

David Bridie Found Wanting

when you're tired and sliding backwards
there's safe comfort better left alone
from great distance you see things
in the kind of light you need to
sharper outlines, neat perspective
see the lies for what they really are
some things are better left alone
some things are better left alone
i'll be always thinking of you
cut you slack whenever you need it
i like the small things, the way you do them
a curious way to pass the afternoon
take a walk out past the station
in the downlight glorious at fall
some things are better left alone
some things are better left alone
or you'll be found wanting, be found wanting
once again
