Haunted Episodes

I wonder what you are thinkin'
Under the rooftops there
Pullin' tangles from your hair

I wonder if the water you're drinkin'
Comes from a purer stream
The one where sunlight gleams

Things 'round here don't get any clearer
Stuff that once seemed in reach is
Not any nearer

I wonder if that house is still standin'
Or did they knock it flat
Well, that's progress that's that

I wonder who was more demanding
We were just young I guess
Neither would settle for less

Still it's not a whole life story is it
It's just a page I turned
And there you were in it

I wonder how you are farin'
Not sliding down a slope
Takin' the knocks I hope

I wonder where your eyes are starin'
Not into some emptiness
Into someone's I guess

But that still won't make things any clearer
People seem to drift apart
Instead of getting nearer

I wonder what you are doin'
Under the evening sky
Watchin' your life go by

I wonder if that place is in ruins
And all the doors are closed
That's just the way it goes

I wonder what there is worth keepin'
From haunted episodes
That briefly woke us from sleepin'
