Van Morrison - Comfortably Numb Lyrics

Hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home?

Come on, now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease the pain
And get you on your feet again

Relax
I need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship's, smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'

When I was a child, I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain you would not understand

This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb

I have become comfortably numb

Okay
Just a little pinprick
There'll be no more, ahh
But you may feel a little sick

Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go

There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'

When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now

The child is grown, the dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb
