  • I pack my case, I check my face
    I look a little bit older
    I look a little bit colder
    With one deep breath, and one big step
    I move a little bit closer, I move a little bit closer
    For reasons unknown

    I caught my stride, I flew and flied
    I know if destiny's kind, I've got the rest on my mind
    Well, my heart
    It don't beat, it don't beat the way it used to
    And my eyes
    They don't see you no more
    And my lips
    They don't kiss, they don't kiss the way they used to
    And my eyes don't recognize you no more

    For reasons unknown

    It was an open chair
    We sat down in the open chair
    I said, if destiny's kind, I've got the rest on my mind
    But my heart
    It don't beat, it don't beat the way it used to
    And my eyes
    They don't see you no more
    And my lips
    They don't kiss, they don't kiss the way they used to
    And my eyes don't recognize you at all

    For reasons unknown
    For reasons unknown

    I said, my heart
    It don't beat, it don't beat the way it used to
    And my eyes don't recognize you no more
    And my lips
    They don't kiss, they don't kiss the way they used to
    And my eyes don't recognize you no more
