No name #1

At a party
He was waiting
Looking kind of spooky and withdrawn
Like he could be underwater
The mighty mother with her hundred arms
Swept all aside
I hate to walk behind other people´s ambition
I saw you waiting
Saint-like
With your warning
Leave alone
You don´t belong here
He got nervous
Started whistling
Ever thought a ricochet
Did you notice?
Well I wondered
What´s the worst thing I could say?
Froze up and sighed
You remind me of someone´s daughter
I forgot her
I forgot her name, ashamed
Go home
And live with your pain
Leave alone
Leave alone, cos you know you don´t belong
You don´t belong here
And when I go
Don´t you follow
Leave alone
Leave alone, cos you know you don´t belong
You don´t belong here
Slip out quiet
Nobody´s looking
Leave alone
You don´t belong here
He was waiting
Looking kind of spooky and withdrawn
Like he could be underwater
The mighty mother with her hundred arms
Swept all aside
I hate to walk behind other people´s ambition
I saw you waiting
Saint-like
With your warning
Leave alone
You don´t belong here
He got nervous
Started whistling
Ever thought a ricochet
Did you notice?
Well I wondered
What´s the worst thing I could say?
Froze up and sighed
You remind me of someone´s daughter
I forgot her
I forgot her name, ashamed
Go home
And live with your pain
Leave alone
Leave alone, cos you know you don´t belong
You don´t belong here
And when I go
Don´t you follow
Leave alone
Leave alone, cos you know you don´t belong
You don´t belong here
Slip out quiet
Nobody´s looking
Leave alone
You don´t belong here
