I've been here the whole time
Unclear and uptight
And you brought me on my way
Then you had to fly away
I've been dusting off shelves
Telling lies to myself
I thought I knew what was true
Until I had to go find you
I've been keeping up with the Jones
I just stood away at home
So don't close your eyes or it slips your mind
Things never go this well
I didn't know if you could tell
The way you say it isn't there
It's closer than you're aware
I can't help it if there's a way
There's an answer you can't say
I thought I knew what was true
Until I had to go find you
When you're next to me I feel fine
Falling heavily - oh I needed it
Early morning - you got a busy day
The dissonance that we create

Say - in your own way
I'm falling off another thing
That you made
Today - like any other day
And I won't have a better thing
To do or say
I don't know why
I don't know why
We get by everyday
And how I believe in
Something far away
Pictures I try to make up
Struggling just to wake up
Pictures I try to explain
Reasons why I'm this way
Oh - where did you go?
Seen you at a show before
How'd I know
I don't know why
I don't know how
I've seen you before
And now I believe in
Something I know
Pictures I try to make up
Struggling just to wake up
Pictures I try to explain
Reasons why I'm this way
I don't know why

Tired out and lonely, my way only
I know the only way, the way I'll find it
I know that you're my favorite
I know that you're mistaken
I believe
When my only way is feeling lonely
When I'm here to give myself to you
I'll give you mine - only my own and only
You and I are only one
And there was only you and me
Tired out and lonely, my way only
I know the only way, the way I'll find it
I know that you're my favorite
I know that you're not faking
I believe

Little Bit
02:42
|
|||
|
In all that I have
And all I say
Could be a mistake
And everything I try to change
Won't go that way
Little byes
Little bit at a time
I walk by
Gotta leave here
In a day
Lose this place
My little home
Seems so far away
Little lies
Little bit at a time
I walk by

Different Eye
02:23

Living in your colonial land
Looking in
Looking into your past
The history of your magazine
I didn't read
But I ripped out the front pages
How long does it take to make
Two different pairs of eyes see the same thing
How odd, it's a temporary life
Designed to help to try to relate
I wanna live somewhere I don't know
But I'll learn
And then I wanna move on
So I'll do the same thing everyday
And I'll be
Something I don't see
How long does it take to make
Two different pairs of eyes see the same thing
How odd, it's a temporary life
Designed to help to try to relate

Be the wind
Feel the way
Hold the night
Let it go

Change

By the way
By the way
You wake up
Every day
And I'll leave
Or you go
Watch the dog
Be alone
I know we're never gonna change
My love
I know we're gonna be the same
And I want more
The kitchen sink
I'll figure out
On the phone
I'm out of town
And the war
You know within
You can try
Try to win
I know we're never gonna change
My love
I know we're gonna be the same
And I want more

When You're Down
03:04
|

|
I hold on steady
Walk through the fog
It's too hard to listen
To it all
Get done pretending
Try to work it out
It's too hard to listen
When you're down
Now
They don't wanna work it out
Don't wanna try to hear it
It's coming too fast now
Get done pretending
Try to work it out
It's too hard to listen
When you're down
Now
I don't wanna fade it out
Open your soul and listen
Or you can just fight it off
I hold on steady
Walk through the fog
It's too hard to listen
To it all

An act of love an octave up
I held on long enough
Now I fill up my cup
Til' I fall off
Then you offered me inside
And you opened up my life
There's a fire burning bright
I can't hide
You feel like someone I've
Already known so long
You came to me in a dream
Then I knew where I had to be
A slow motion curl
Reality gone
In the morning warmth of day
In the wake of making way
In the head of thinking straight
I find space
You feel like someone I've
Already known so long
You came to me in a dream
Then I knew where I had to be
A slow motion curl
Reality gone
Yea you want her in your life
Can you give it another try?

Majordomo
02:26
|

Back out the door
Early in the morn'
Hop on the bus
Heading for New York
I'm the majordomo
Serving the dream
Dream of somebody else
Say what you mean
And I'll try to help
I'm the majordomo
Who can say what it takes?
You're only right half of the time
By the way, I'll be late
I forgot time
Market Street
Throw it in the bag
We don't eat
Things we used to have
I'm the majordomo
Who can say what it takes?
You're only right half of the time
By the way, I'll be late
I forgot time
