Lyrics Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock

I'm Only You

Said I'm a willow bending in your mind

I'm a mirror cracked from side to side

I'm a snow-covered mountain

In an empty room

I'm a house that burns down

Every night for you

Said I'm a doorway leading to the dark

I'm a liquid you're dissolving in

I'm a policeman working

In an empty house

I'm a distant steeple

On a long-deserted plain

Sometimes when I'm lonely,

Baby, then I'm only you

Said I'm a pattern on a china bowl

I'm a memory engraved upon your soul

I'm a prison cell without a door

I'm a finger drawing

On a frosty window pane

Sometimes when I'm lonely,

Baby, then I'm only you

Sometimes when I'm lonely,

Baby, then I'm only you
