 Lyrics for Verses:
I. You keep a lot of secrets      II. You tell me you´re waiting     III. Jennifer, you are not the only
   And I keep none                    For someone                         reason
   Wish I could go back               Who isn´t so hopeless               My head is boiling and my hands
   And keep some                      There´s no one                      are freezing
                                                                          Jennifer you are not the only one
                                                                          To sit awake until the wild
                                                                          feelings leave you

Lyrics for Bridge:
   You´re the needle in the hay
   You´re the water at the door
   You´re a million miles away
   Doesn´t matter anymore
