Hurt - Shallow Lyrics

Complimentary "Shallow" Ringtone

You're watching the cars, movies and stars 
They are your lifetime... 
Yet all that I am is half what we are 
Maybe some other time 
I'll get it right 
I'll get it right 

Oh sweet voice on the phone 
You sound so alone 
'Cause you couldn't be wasted 
Yet all that I ever was 
To you I am 
I'm less than a man 

That slowly changes out of phase 
And I don't know why it is 
Its an ever changing simple thing that I miss... 

While watching TV take in what you say 
So you're death is painless 
When all that I ever was returns again 
I'm all that I am 

And I'll get it right 
When I get it right 
'Cause I'll get it right 
When I get it right 

But I'm slowly changing out of phase 
And I don't know why it is 
It's an ever-changing simple thing that I know 
But don't know why it is 
That I'm longing for a sweet embrace, which I miss
