Kim Smith

From a long way away
Everything still looks okay
I still go to work
Well, almost everyday
I put my tongue on the roof of my mouth
It keeps me from saying what I have to say

I sail the seas with no wind at all
I count the years with chalk on the wall
I get around but have no place to be
And you can’t see anything wrong
Just by looking at me

From a long way away
Everything still looks okay
But the sun keeps setting
In the middle of the day
I put my tongue on the roof of my mouth
It makes me look like I’m smiling day after day
Day after day

I sail the seas with no wind at all
I count the years with chalk on the wall
I get around but have no place to be
But you can’t see anything wrong
Just by looking at me

From a long way away
Everything still looks okay
But I feel the darkness in the middle of the day
I put my tongue on the roof of my mouth
And I silently pray
We’ll get together again someday
Someday, someday, someday
