My lover’s just a simple girl her head is in the sand
She talks in mathematics that I just don’t understand
But no one ever catches her she hides behind the sun
And she is not afraid of anyone
And sometimes when the nights are cold she lies so close to me
I try to whisper gentle things but she says let it be
Oh no one ever catches her she hides behind the sun
And she is not afraid of anyone
I could have made something of my life so goodbye
I could have been someone very nice how I tried
But nothing mattered much to me
I spent a lifetime by the sea
The mountain ranges heard my song
The young girls laughed and sang along
They sang along they sang along
Now I don’t really understand just what you see in me
I left my wife and children for a love that could not be
But no one ever catches me I hide behind the sun
And I am not afraid of anyone
Oh I am not afraid of anyone
