If you don't mind, I will start again alone

If you don't mind, I'll just move myself along

You take up my time, fill my head with delusions

And leave me blind, like I'm starin' at the sun



'Cause I can't, and I won't look away when you walk

But I'm through with being tied to nothing



I liken a razor to the way you cut the bone

Get down on my knees and lift you up onto your throne



Oh, I wasn't ready to be leaving all alone

'Cause your smile lights a fire in everyone



I finally realized that underneath the waves are rolling

I cover my eyes, and whisper in your ear

You make all the rain explode and pour the thunder on the faceless

I'm holding my own in the face of you



So , Baby, if you don't mind I'll start again alone

And, Baby, if you don't mind I'll just move myself along

And, Baby, if you don't mind I'll take it as it comes

'Cause your smile lights a fire, in your eyes every time

And your smile lights a fire in everyone
