"Lately there has been some kind of changes in the structure
It seems somehow the sunlight doesn't move the way it ought to, my love
What are you thinking?
You draw a line that doesn't fit
You write a word that doesn't quite
seem to describe the things they should
And what can I say, when I look around I see nothing sometimes

And maybe I've been building me a fence
�Cause nothing's gonna get to me again
Betina, if I'd only know the things there were to see
But I couldn't see the forest for the trees

And you're just a girl but when you smile
it seems to me you've seen it all
Like nothing anyone could say or do
would slightly surprise you
And where do that come from?

I think maybe they're building us a place
Which nobody will get out from again
Betina, if I'd only know the things there were to see
But I couldn't see the forest for the trees

We should have smashed your father's house
And hung him out in the papers
We should have gone there with a bat
to teach that bastard a lesson or two
But somethings you do and some
are said and thrown away, Betina

Betina, do I need to tell you how often I've been thinking of you
Everytime I see a face like yours it brings your memory back to life
Of things to fear and things to love, I'll never know what you were thinking of
But some witnesses have said that it's the most pretty place they've been
and that is some kind of comfort I guess

And maybe I've been building me a fence
�Cause nothing's gonna get to me again
Betina, if I'd only know the things there were to see
But I couldn't see the forest for the trees

We should have smashed your father's house
And hung him out in the papers
We should have gone there with a bat
to teach that bastard a lesson or two
But somethings you do and some
are said and thrown away, Betina
How I wish you could have stayed
