well i take notes 
of all the distant roads 
the sidewalk stones 
i have walked 
for i’ve been around 
i have looked left and right 
but i can’t seem to find 
where to go 

i guess i talk a lot 
‘bout regaining what is lost 
i keep notes 
i guess you’ve had enough 
i guess i talk too much 
but you keep smiling 

now the road is closed 
but i had different hopes 
‘cause all the maps they showed 
it goes on 
i hope it’s worth the while 
to have another try 
whenever space is mine 
i take notes 

i guess i talk a lot 
‘bout regaining what is lost 
i keep notes 
i guess you’ve had enough 
i guess i talk too much 
i’ll keep trying 

so please stay alert 
i hope you change the words 
don’t wanna fear the worst 
i’ll hold on 
i see you’re holding on 
i see you standing strong 
so can i have some 
i’ll take notes 

i guess i talk a lot 
‘bout regaining what is lost 
i keep notes 
i guess you’ve had enough 
i guess i talk too much 
but you keep smiling
