Never slept so little Never smoked so much Lost my concentration I could even lose my touch Talking to myself Crying out loud Only I can hear me I'm stuck inside a cloud I made some exhibition I lost my will to eat The only thing that matters to me is to touch your lotus feet Talking to myself Crying out loud Only I can hear me I'm stuck inside a cloud Talking to myself Crying out loud Only I can hear me And I'm stuck inside a cloud Talking to myself Crying out loud Only I can hear me I'm stuck inside a cloud Never been so crazy But I've never felt so sure I wish I had the answer to give Don't even have the cure Just talking to myself crying as we part Knowing as you leave me I also lose my heart Talking to myself crying as we part Knowing as you leave me I also lose my heart
