His Own Place versuri

His Own Place lyrics by comfy band

Verse 1
Follow him at a distance of twenty five paces
Pausing once every so often when he stops
He’s on his way back home, the same route that he takes
Every day, turning at the old corner shop
When he’s inside I see him draw the curtains nervously
He thinks maybe he’s only paranoid
I know he knows deep in his gut our final meeting
Is something he can postpone but can’t avoid

Chorus
Go on and walk your maze you’re building day by day
I’m patient, I can sit and wait

Verse 2
Did I see a shadow standing there?
Did you hear me coming up the stairs?
Maybe it’s only your imagination playing tricks on you
Or maybe someone moved the plant
And when he feels my breath on the back of his neck
He makes a move to run away but knows he can’t

Bridge
Hardly believes my eyes
Like a mirror staring back into his face
I tell him not to cry
It’s my turn to take his own place
