VERSE. Oooh, I guess I knew it would happen eventually. But I was not prepared for the word. No, I was not prepared for the word. No, they didn't give me no warning 'fore they told me the news.
Good planets are hard to find. Temperate zones and tropic climes. True currents in thriving seas. Winds blowin' through breathing trees. Strong ozone and safe sunshine.
Well everybody here, seems to like to laugh. Look at Johnny jivin' across the floor. He can play the fool and make a few mistakes. But all the same he'll never be a bore.
On the turnpike again. Just to reach you, my friend. Just to find you and see. If you still care for me. . All the times I've been burned. Don't it seem like I've learn?.
The signal lights jerk in the wind. And snow blows off the road like sand,. The driver squints and sets his chin,. He's got to hold the upper hand,. Saginaw by midnight, that's the plan.
So you're down,. So it's hard,. Don't stop,. Don't stop now.. . Stop an' you're negating. Ev'rything that you've been waiting for so long;. Stop an' you're denying.
Dear Lord, hear Lord,. Please, if you will, my plea,. Send me someone else,. Send me someone else.. . I can't eat, I can't sleep,. I don't even brush my teeth,.
Tell me, tell me,. Will they ever not short sell me?. I'm trusting you,. You're trusting, too.. . Hear me, hear me,. Just as long as you're here near me,.
What a big new world. Is it all this tall?. Shelves in the den. And the fan blades that spin. Seem far away;. On my hands and knees. I can crawl the hall,.
Different winds of sorrow restrain me. Every time I try to keep my head above. I'm drowning in sadness, tears become a sea. While I'm desperately searching for a key.
