I'm stuck in a concrete canyon traffic jam
|
Can't part the red light sea
|
I set sail on this asphalt river
|
Five o'clock rush hour, no one's gettin' anywhere
|
Staring at a billboard of the American dream
|
|
I need space; stand back and let me breathe
|
I need air washing over me
|
I need time to see, to feel, to be
|
I can love you more when I'm free
|
|
Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree
|
Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need is: space
|
Space
|
|
Well your heart wraps around me like fingers holding tight
|
And you call it love
|
I fell for a wind chasin' cowboy
|
The sky was wide open, you said we were going for it
|
Promised me no fences; this one went up
|
|
I need space; stand back and let me breathe
|
I need air washing over me
|
I need time to see, to feel, to be
|
I can love you more when I'm free
|
|
Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree
|
Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need is: space
|
Space
|
|
Alone makes me wanna be with you
|
All I want is a chance to miss you
|
|
I need space; stand back and let me breathe
|
I need air washing over me
|
I need time to see, to feel, to be
|
I can love you more when I'm free
|
|
Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree
|
Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need
|
Like a prayer, like a motion, like a crashing water fall
|
Like a ship, like a secret, like a herd, all I need is: space
|
Space
|
|
Stand back and let me breathe
|
Oh I need space
|
