lyrics

You walked home alone again
Book open, pencil in hand
Guarded by what you don't understand
Like why people hurt you, and why it concerns you
As for me, I just wanted to drop by

Perhaps you saw it on the news today
The man who made it through the stock exchange
Who never tested his range, never defined his domain
Still he says be realistic, we're all just statistics
As for me, I just wanted to drop by

There are those simply chasing 'right now' who say
"I'll show you the world, if you show me how"
'Cause you know that only you know what to allow
Still they flirt with the vision of making your decisions
As for me, I just wanted to drop by

Streets are littered with those who try to impress
Who want to take you home then leave you, undressed
Who don't know the difference between cause and effect
And think that they're pleased, but don't know what it means
As for me, I just wanted to drop by

I don't want you to trust me, I want you to know
Because before I get the chance I may have to go
This was only meant to be a quick pit-stop hello,
So act on your mind, and leave me behind
After all, I just wanted to drop by
Yeah I guess I just wanted to say hi
