Down to the middle it's as hard as stone
Some kind of pedestal to put you on
How are we livin', how can we sleep anymore
I keep a rhythm and I follow the light
To smoke a cigarette to get inside
We are believers in the bold dark heat of the night
I had a photograph
Tried to make you laugh
Try too hard too fast
It's just lately, lately
I been thinking about you lately
I been talkin' about you lately
I keep pushin' and a-pushin' on
You keep on givin' and not givin' up
I keep to myself but you can keep me if you want
I remember every word that you said
Nothin' colder than an empty bed
I used to like it but it keeps me from movin' on
Oh what's my name
I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried but I can't, but I can't
Lately in the nighttime, lately any time of day
I hear you are calling, calling for me by my name
Lately in the daytime, I don't really feel the same
Lately in the nighttime, lately
I been thinking about you lately
I been talkin' about you lately
I been thinking about you lately
I been talkin' about you lately, lately
