At a party he was waiting
Looking kind of spooky and withdrawn
Like he could be underwater
The mighty mother with her hundred arms
Swept all aside
I hate to walk behind
Other people's ambition
I saw you waiting
Saint-like with your warning
Leave alone
You don't belong here
He got nervous, started whistling
Every thought a ricochet
Did you notice? Well, I wondered
What's the worst thing I could say?
Froze up inside
"You remind me of
Someone's daughter," I forgot her
I forgot her name, ashamed
Go home and live with your pain
Leave alone
Leave alone
'Cause you know you don't belong
You don't belong here
And when I go, don't you follow
Leave alone
Leave alone
'Cause you know you don't belong
You don't belong here
Slip out quiet
Nobody's looking
Leave alone
You don't belong here
