Hey there new friend across the sea

If you figure things out would you figure in me

Wouldn't it be a thing

To live somewhere quietly where there's a breeze

And there's a reason for us to be

I look at people here in this city and wonder if they're lonely

Or like me they're not content to live as things are meant to be

When were you happy?

And how long has that been?

Who speaks for them and then again

Who speaks for me?

My vote was never counted, so who upon this earth knows what it is that I believe?

We're all looking for answers where no answers can be found

Or is that a concern of mine

Because I have the time

To question my ground?

Hey there new friend across the sea

Have you figured things out? would you figure in me?

Hey there new friend across the sea

Have you figured things out? would you figure in me?

I find the more I think the harder it is for me to breathe

When were we happy?

And how long has that been?
