Lyrics Vashti Bunyan - Some Things Just Stick in Your Mind

Why does the sky turn grey every night
Sun rise again in time
Why do you think of the first love you had
Somethings just stick in your mind

Why does the rain fall down on the earth
Why do the clouds keep crying
Why do you sleep curled up like a child
Some things just stick in your mind

Why when the children grow up and leave
Still remember their nursery rhymes
Why must there be so much hate in their lives
Some things just stick in their minds


I Want To Be Alone (Bunyan)

You know there are times when I don’t need you
But you seem to think it means
I don’t love you – but I do
But sometimes I want to be alone
Somewhere on my own

I don’t know why it is but I sometimes feel
That I have to get away
Yet I know I love you
But sometimes I have to be alone
Somewhere on my own

Don’t make me stay to walk aimlessly
Hand in hand – just today set me free
Let me be alone

Tomorrow I may find that I can’t go through
Even one more lonely hour
Without you - yet it’s true
That sometimes I have to be alone
Somewhere on my own
Let me be alone
