Lyrics
[ robert buck/natalie merchant ]
Over your shoulder, please don't mind me If my eyes have fallen onto your magazine Oh I've been watching and wondering Why your face is changing with every line you read
All those lines and circles, to me, a mystery Eve pull down the apple and give taste to me If she could it would be wonderful, but my pride is in the way I cannot read to save my life, I'm so ashamed to say
I live in silence, afraid to speak Of my life in darkness because I cannot read
For all those lines and circles, to me, a mystery Eve pull down the apple and give taste to me If she could it would be wonderful Then I wouldn't need someone else's eyes to see what's in front of me No one guiding me
It makes me humble to be so green At what every kid can do when he learns a to z
But all those lines and circles just frighten me And I fear that I'll be trampled if you don't reach for me Before I run I'll have to take a fall And then pick myself up, so slowly I'll devour every one of those books in the tower of knowledge
