[Verse 1]
From time to time, I talk to you
As if you could hear me speak
The breath of me, but words of you
You take the one away, and the other still makes me weak
[Verse 2]
Every now and then, I start to laugh
Thinking of the last time you kissed me free
Still reeling from the aftermath
Of the savory storm of you and me
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a simple world, I know the way it works
And I know I'm not the first
[Chorus]
From time to time, I turn to you
But I won't let it show like you want me to, no
My head held so high, I can hardly see
Wouldn't notice if you were turned to me
If you were turned to me
[Verse 3]
I hope you can understand
Because we've all been there some
And when you're hanging from someone else's hand
The moment of letting go can leave your fingertips numb
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a simple world, I know the tables turn
And I'll close the book of you, word after word
[Chorus]
From time to time, I turn to you
But I won't let it show like you want me to, no
My head held so high, I can hardly see
Wouldn't notice if you were turned to me
If you were turned to me
[Bridge]
If you were turned to me, I wouldn't think twice
To turn the tacit hands of time back to when you were mine
But it's a paradox of chains and locks
I keep on looking forward when I walk
So I see almost nothing at all
Except when from—
[Chorus]
From time to time, I turn to you
But I will not let it show like you want me to
My head held so high, I can hardly see
Wouldn't notice if you were turned to me
If you were turned to me
