|
Running to catch up again, jumping higher and flying more often than not |
|
Your trampoline has got holes in it but I can still see the top |
|
Let me climb aboard and sample some of next years fashion |
|
I'll wear the coat if you can put the hat on, I will wear the coat, |
|
Just let me clear my throat so I can say what's been delayed away |
|
Let me fall into your lap and just lay here for a while |
|
Satisfied by your seduction like a handshake would do the job |
|
Never know how long I have waited, |
|
Anticipated your smile to be pressed against mine |
|
Your smile pressed against mine |
|
Well I feel it (yeah) |
|
Well I feel it (oh boy) |
|
Well I feel it (oh my) |
|
And I'm gonna settle tight (settle down) |
|
She could pour me over this sugar hill or mountain |
|
Until I get that cool breeze, tight squeeze, I'd do it over again |
|
And I drink from her ever flowing fountain |
|
And then I wake up I comb my hair and I hurry it up |
|
But I arrive late I pack my things and I pick it up |
|
Well I put down a good amount of deodorant on this morning |
|
And I found that I could drown a little bit of peace of mind |
|
Cause it's no secret that to some degree |
|
They're gonna have to see you sweat |
|
Strong enough for a man just do what you can to keep me soft and dry, |
|
I'll stink a while |
|
I don't know anything about those things |
|
I almost don't wanna know anything about those things |
|
I don't care anything about those things |
|
Cause if I did you know I'd share myself on those things, and |
|
Well I feel it (yeah) |
|
Well I feel it (oh boy) |
|
Well I feel it (oh my) |
|
I'm finally settling down, |
|
Maybe you and I can settle down |
|
And I'll be here all night, |
|
I'll pick up the pieces and I put them back together now |
|
They may not be the right way but that's okay, okay, |
|
As long as they're all the same |
|
I wish you well that you'd get better, |
|
And I know you'll find that it's a wild world |
|
That's okay, cause you're a wild girl |
|
And I took the hits, and I turned to sh*t |
|
And if you had noticed well would you have thrown the towel in |
|
Before I missed out on all this love, and watch me roll away again |
|
Watch me disappear up under my skin |
|
I don't believe it that things could get any worse than they did that time |
|
You must have seen it, |
|
I mean how could we get lost running in a straight line |
|
Your cries of why's and why not's, may it all get back to you |
|
And trickle and dance upon your headaches, |
|
Years of biting cheeks are through |
|
So I don't believe in it. |
|
But I feel it. |
|
Well I feel it (at least I'm feeling something) |
|
Well I feel it (oh boy) |
|
Well I feel it (oh my) |
|
I'm saving it up again to share it all with you, |
|
Oh, that what I wanna do, |
|
I be feeling it, be feeling it, |
|
Hope you're feeling it too. |
|
You make me high: |
|
I don't know just what I'm here for |
|
I want more than words can describe |
|
I've been deprived |
|
Can you believe it |
|
My whole world, well it's falling apart |
|
It falls, yes it falls, it's falling apart around me |
|
And you pick me back up, oh said you're picking back up |
|
You're gonna pick me back up and you get me high |
|
Said you pick me back up, oh said you're picking back up |
|
Oh you're gonna pick me back up and you get me high |
|
I'm drinking all of the tears you cry |
|
I'm breathing up every breath you sigh |
|
I don't wish to know my ending |
|
I just wanna know when I begun |
|
I wanna know when I begun |
|
I wanna know where it started from |
|
Where it all had started from |
|
Feel like I am spinning, |
|
Feel like I'm spinning |
|
Well I feel just like I'm spinning, I'm spinning around |
|
I feel like I am spinning around the summer |
|
Then the winter comes and another storm |
|
It falls, well it falls, yes it falls apart around me |
|
And you pick me back up, oh how you picking back up |
|
Oh you're gonna pick me back up and you get me high |
|
Said you're picking me back up, oh now you're picking me back up |
|
Oh you're gonna pick me back up and you get me high, high, get me high |
|
I'm drinking all of the tears you cry |
|
I'm breathing up every breath that you sigh |
|
I'm breathing up, |
|
You pick me back up and you get me high, |
|
Only once, I'm flying in all your confidence |
|
Easy does it, I don't want to fall to pieces |
|
Don't want to fall to pieces |
|
Eyes open (Remember my name): |
|
So I keep my eyes open as if |
|
Love could come a walking as if |
|
Everything else is meaningless, meaningless |
|
And that's the way it oughta be |
|
Mystery including me |
|
Oh everything else |
|
Is almost meaningless, meaningless |
|
Okay, |
|
Well I will always feel that way |
|
And if a time of change should come |
|
You'd remember my name |
|
Oh say |
|
Well I will always feel that way |
|
And if a time a change should come |
|
You'd remember my |
|
You'd remember my name |
|
Keep your eyes open as if |
|
Everyone else a poet as if |
|
Everything else is meaningless, meaningless |
|
And that's the way it oughta be, yea |
|
Mysteries, especially she |
|
Oh well everything else |
|
Is almost meaningless, meaningless |
|
Okay |
|
Well I will always feel that way |
|
And if a time of change should come |
|
You'd remember my name |
|
Oh say |
|
Well I will always feel that way |
|
And if a time a change should come |
|
You'd remember my |
|
You'd remember my |
|
You'd remember my name |
|
Say yes, you will, I will remember you |
|
To be a little bit advanced |
|
You gotta take a little bit of a second chance on your life |
|
You gotta get on up and dance |
|
And maybe wave all your precious plans goodbye |
|
You gotta keep your eyes open |
|
As if everything else is just come along on its way |
|
And that's the way it oughta be |
|
Little mysteries in everything |
|
Well I say, I say |
|
Well I, I will always feel that way |
|
And if a time of change should come |
|
You'd remember my name |
|
Oh say |
|
Well I will always feel that way |
|
If a time a change should come |
|
You'd remember my |
|
You'd remember my |
|
You'd remember my name |
|
Say yeah |
|
Baby, you remember my... and I'll remember us, |
|
Always |
|
On love, in sadness: |
|
Oh love it's a brittle madness |
|
I sing about it in all my sadness |
|
Not falsified to say that I found god so inevitably well, |
|
It still exists pale and fine. I can't dismiss |
|
And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried |
|
And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain |
|
And pour over everything we say we trust |
|
It happened again, I listened in life sins |
|
And I'm in like Flynn again |
|
It comes around |
|
So go on place your order now |
|
Cause some other time is right around the block |
|
You can stand in line, it finally begins just around the clock |
|
You can have your pick if your stomach is sick whether you eat or not |
|
And there is just one thing that I never forgot |
|
You and me, we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain |
|
And pour over everything we say we trust |
|
It happened again, I listened in through hallways and thin doors |
|
Where the rivers unwind, rivers unwind so easy |
|
These are the comforts that be |
|
You see well I'm feeling lucky, oh well, maybe that's just me |
|
Will you be so proud of me, oh hell, if you could only see |
|
How we're gonna grow on up to be, oh yes |
|
We are thick as thieves |
|
Oh love it's a brittle madness |
|
I sing about it in all my sadness |
|
Not falsified to say that I found god so inevitably well, |
|
It still exists pale and fine. I can't dismiss |
|
And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried |
|
And we just lay awake in lust and rust in the rain |
|
And pour over everything we say we trust |
|
It happened again, I listened in through hallways and thin doors |
|
Where the rivers unwind and rivers in wind endure |
|
The rust and the rain endure |
|
I am insofar to know the measure of love ain't loss |
|
Love will never ever be insofar to know the measure of love ain't loss |
|
Love will never ever be lost on me. |
|
Not tonight, |
|
Love will never ever be lost on me. |
|
Dead end: |
|
Singing easily with me, I show affection |
|
But it's creeping up, creeping up on me |
|
In another direction |
|
I love a ride |
|
And I know someday I'm gonna buy it |
|
So I try to ask no questions |
|
But the weary one is often me |
|
Do you think it's obsession |
|
The smoke will find you a choker |
|
That matches your coat |
|
Not fit to be tied |
|
The mirror |
|
It makes it all clearer |
|
As you stand alone and can see your behind |
|
Well they tried it |
|
And they like to say nobody would believe this |
|
Yes, you tried it and you liked it |
|
Nobody would ever conceive of it |
|
The way you stayed up locked away up |
|
Keeping the flame for yourself |
|
The way you played it out |
|
Pushing the blame of |
|
Reaping the fame for yourself |
|
Oh, it's a, it's a dead end |
|
It's a dead end day |
|
It's a dead and lonely day |
|
Said a day |
|
It's a dead end |
|
It's a dead end thing |
|
It's a dead and lonely day |
|
And it's a long way |
|
A long way down |
|
Sing it again |
|
And it's a long way |
|
It's a long way down |
|
A long way |
|
Change is coming baby |
|
Don't be startled lady |
|
Every once in awhile they do it again |
|
You're gonna shake it, shake it |
|
You know you wanna take it |
|
Back to where you once belonged |
|
Said back beneath the sheets |
|
And between the pillow cases |
|
And the snake he races out |
|
And then he tangles into your hair |
|
Oh, funny the fruits you choose |
|
Oh the time it takes the words you lose |
|
And it all goes back to rotation |
|
Over the back of your hand |
|
Said the back of your hand |
|
Said the back of your hand |
|
The map is your hand |
|
The back of your hand |
|
It's the back of your hand |
|
You know the map is your hand |
|
You better take pictures of it and remember what you can |
|
Cause it's a long, long way |
|
And it's a long, long way |
|
And it's a long, long, |
|
It's a long, long way down |
|
Here I am I'm sitting alone again |
|
I'm staring up at the sky which at this lonely moment is my only friend |
|
Suddenly as I gaze upon the night |
|
I notice the stars began to shake and dance and fall into the darkness |
|
They exploded down. |
|
I knew what I had to do. |
|
I ran up to the top of the hill and took a hold for you |
|
The sweetest star that fell |
|
And yes I held on to it close to the numbness in my heart |
|
And then I kissed a star. |
|
I wrapped it up inside a golden bow |
|
I ran away just to find you. |
|
This was your gift, oh sh*t, a star that I kissed. |
|
The galaxy that lived inside your eyes |
|
Was in need of a brand new shining light. |
|
I wished to the dark sky up above that all I had |
|
Was to be captured and willingly turned over to you. |
|
You are the star that shines and explodes with light |
|
And I love and embrace all that I can. |
|
You better take this blindness and sail away from me |
|
Let me bask inside your golden sea. |
|
I never ever knew such simple astronomy |
|
Never knew it could ever come to me by ways of the heart. |
|
Call me to be one of those strangely dressed wise men |
|
Who follow the stars to their love |
|
You are such a perfect star to wish upon |
|
I love you and god, I'm hopeful |
|
Of what this lonely night may lead me into. |
|
I'm hopeful of what this lonely, lonely night may lead me into now |
|
I'm hopeful that all good things will come about |
|
I'm wishing upon you now. |
|
I'm wishing upon you now. |
|
Glory light, glory, yes, glorious light |
|
Free me and let me indulge in my view |
|
A most beautiful you |
|
A keeper of starlight |
|
Keeping me up, just a little |
|
Here I am I'm sitting alone again |
|
I'm staring up at the sky which at this lonely moment is my only friend |
|
Suddenly as I gaze upon the night |
|
I notice the stars began to shake and burst looks like they wanna fight |
|
No they were dancing. They were romancing. |
|
They were falling in love all over. |
|
Falling in love all over again |
|
Yes, they fall in love |
|
Connecting the dots and crawling around this galaxy |
|
From town to town, look what I found |
|
Falling in love, |
|
Look what I found, |
|
Falling in love again |
|
All my friends falling in love all over |
|
The darkest space: |
|
I'm not just a song anymore |
|
I might be the whole damn score |
|
I might be reeling in your head while |
|
You're sleeping in your bed at night |
|
I'm not just along anymore |
|
Well I finally found what I was lookin' for |
|
I might be sitting in the passenger's side but not along for the ride |
|
Cause I've got control of a home grown situation |
|
I lay back and then I turn the alarm off and turn out the light |
|
There's going to be some quality sleeping |
|
Quality's keeping quality up at night |
|
I am fixed to lay with my arms out and learning to fly |
|
Through the darkest space |
|
Where I try to catch up to a catch phrase |
|
To human race I say let the games begin |
|
Under way still in conditions that we play in |
|
Maybe these things are better this way |
|
May the games begin today |
|
Oh well |
|
I'm just above |
|
Any ailing aggravation of love |
|
And I raise to optimistical fortune |
|
Toasting it twice |
|
I'm getting high on an anytime any day night |
|
And I laugh to think I'm crying my eyes out well isn't it nice |
|
It's the darkest space |
|
Where I try to catch up to the catch phrase |
|
Human race I say let the games begin |
|
Under way still in conditions that we play in |
|
Maybe these things, maybe these things |
|
May the games begin in open space |
|
I finally catch up to a catch phrase |
|
To human race, well I say, honey let the games begin |
|
Under way still in conditions that we play |
|
Maybe these things should begin today |
|
Boy, this whole damn world is your toy, boy |
|
Thank you. That was the first song, we've got about 15 more of those. |
|
Sweating just a little. That was a lot of fun, you guys. |
