    Telepathist

    by: Elecktra

    Counting clouds under the bridge
    That I built to make you speak,
    I send you signals of smoke.
    But you don´t see them at all.
    Forgotten in a corner...
    I´m waiting, keeping my thumb up...
    While I lick my wounds.
    Far, I see you...
    Far, far, far.
    Throwing bottles at you beach
    With a message: "It is me"
    I wink my eye, don´t you know?
    And nothing is what you show.
    Letters in your mailbox...
    I am standing in front of you...
    Waving high my hand.
    Far, I see you...
    Far, far, far.
    Well, you don´t hear me yet.
    No reaction till today.
    And I´m tired of chasing you,
    It´s the only thing I do.
    Forgotten in a corner...
