I keep your picture on the shelf of my mind
But the clutter’s making it hard to find
I can’t remember what you look like
‘Cause you avert your eyes
Now your picture starts to gather dust
It was clearer when I saw you once
When we were together your eyes lit up
But now they’re not in sight
And you don’t care
Or if you do why do you stare
In the other direction?
In the other direction
Something changed when I stopped saying your name
So I guess that I’m the one to blame
Do you think we’ll ever be the same?
Or is it just too late?
But you don’t care
Or if you do why do you stare
In the other direction?
In the other direction
Oh what I would do
To try to see you
But still you’re staring
In the other direction
You don’t care
Or if you do why do you stare
In the other direction?
In the other direction
Oh what I would do
To try to see you
But still you’re staring
In the other direction
The other direction
The other direction
