|
you were on my mind at least nine tenths of yesterday |
|
it seemed as if perhaps I'd gone insane |
|
what is it about you that has commandeered my brain? |
|
maybe it's your awesome songs or maybe it's the way |
|
|
|
when I look at your face I can tell that you're not going to be stopping soon or even slowing down |
|
and if we keep up this pace pretty soon we'll know the name of every kid and every grown up booking house shows in their town |
|
|
|
|
|
and if home is really where the heart is |
|
then wer're the smartest kids I know |
|
because wherever we are in this great big world |
|
we'll never be more than a few hours from home |
|
|
|
and that's important because I need to travel |
|
I've had this itchin in my shoes since I was just a little kid |
|
and before I had a mini van I road the Greyhound bus |
|
my mom would say "I hope some day you get paid for being Kimya Dawson" |
|
|
|
|
|
and now I do and it's not much |
|
but it's enough |
|
I've got my Scrabble game, food on my plate, good friends and family |
|
and now there's you understanding why I do the things I do |
|
knowing that you do them too makes me really happy |
|
|
|
|
|
on the road again |
|
just can't wait to get on the road again |
|
the life I love is makin' music with my friends |
|
and I can't wait to get on the road again |
|
|
|
|
|
on the road again |
|
just can't wait to get on the road again |
|
the life I love is makin' music with my friends |
|
and I can't wait to get on the road again |
|
|
|
|
|
from a distance, the world looks blue and green |
|
and the snow capped mountains white |
|
|
|
from a distance, the ocean meets the stream |
|
and the eagle takes to flight |
|
|
|
|
|
(whispered) |
|
|
|
Darkness imprisoning me |
|
All that I see |
|
Absolute horror |
|
I cannot live |
|
I cannot die |
|
Trapped in myself |
|
Body my holding cell |
|
|
|
|
|
do do do do do do do |
|
do do do do do do do |
|
do do do do do do do |
|
do do do do do do do |
|
|
|
I'll be your cryin' shoulder |
|
I'll be love's suicide |
|
I'll be do do do do do do |
|
I'll be the greatest man of your life |
|
|
|
|
|
'cause I like going for hikes and riding bikes |
|
and playing video games in the middle of the night |
|
and I'll stay up late and I wont even care |
|
that we're getting up early to go to the state fair |
|
|
|
I'm gonna ride the biggest ride it'll be out of sight |
|
then I'll share an elephant ear with you if you'd like |
|
because we are alive so we've gotta live life |
|
to the fullest you spin the bottle and I'll dim the lights |
|
four five six seven minutes in the closet |
|
|
|
you were on my mind at least nine tenths of yesterday |
|
it seemed as if perhaps I'd gone insane |
|
what is it about you that has commandeered my brain? |
|
maybe it's your awesome songs or maybe it's the way |
|
|
|
you go straight to the top you're not scared of getting squashed |
|
you know just when to jump off |
|
you're so brave |
|
and then you run to the right it seems there's no hope in sight |
|
and you drop down to the tube that takes you right to level eight |
|
|
|
|
|
life is a highway and I'm gonna ride it |
|
every day's a winding road yeah |
|
my rollercoaster's got the biggest ups and downs |
|
as long as it keeps goin' round its unbelievable |
|
|
|
|
|
life is a highway and I'm gonna ride it |
