[edit] Lyrics

I'm shivering in the shadow of the tracks in which you stand
The eyes that stare me down send me to sleep a happy man
But I could take advantage of your smile
If I were just a cruel and selfish child

The wind outside your window blows a cold and chilly frost
While counting all the friendships I have won or I have lost
But words not found, good deeds will soon be naught
If I lose this battle with myself I fought

Chorus: 
Because its a long long time, for you to remember
And its a lot to ask, the things that I do
And its a long long time, from May to December
Any little bit, any little bit, will do

Your voice is warm and worried any place that you are near
You seem to say the things right now I really need to hear
But anything you say is written down
And anything you do is held account

Chorus

They know about the troubles
They know about the songs that we've been singing
They'll never know the secrets, that I keep

I'm dreaming of a party that I give where no one goes
The ones who say they'll come will be the ones who are last to show
I pray and beg that I'm not left behind
So let me stand back here and watch you shine
Chorus

VERSES:
    G                               Em
I'm shivering in the shadows of the tracks in which you stand
    G                                  Em
the eyes that stare me down send me to sleep a happy man
    Am                             D
But I could take advantage of your smile
   Am                              D
If I were just a cruel and selfish child


CHORUS:

             G                          Em
Cause it's a long, long time for you to remember

Any little bit, any little bit will do

Em                  Am
They know about the troubles 
Em                  Am      (??C          D?????)
They know about the songs that we've been singing
Em                     Am
They'll never know the secrets
D
That I keep
