Lyrics
There's plenty moon to light the sky now
Just one or two clouds drift on by
Comfort rolls in with the tide now
It all seems well on the outside
And I've had more than just a few now
I should be feeling plenty high
but I feel small beneath the stars now
Still all is best on the outside
It's plenty lonely on the inside
Only echos of a life you left behind
Too many memories
I try to run
and hide it all from the outside
Been plenty days and plenty nights now
since you went drifting from my sky
And all my friends say I look fine now
that's what they see on the outside
I'm plenty good with my disguise now
this masquerade of my design
I hide it all from the outside now
ignore that welling in my eyes
repeat
