SOMETIMES
|
Sometimes
|
I get so still it makes me dizzy.
|
I end my solo moonlight dance and bow out gracefully.
|
Sometimes
|
I still let you play the prophet in my head,
|
as I play back the words you said.
|
So in my mind I can go back in time
|
and tell you, you were wrong.
|
And you'd say
|
Remember the time I called you wildflower?
|
I guess you took me a little too seriously.
|
You'd say
|
It's not just you, it's your bravado that causes my worry.
|
I can see you saying this to me.
|
One time I undressed my soul to wander.
|
I found a greener shade of meadow and sat right down to rest.
|
That time you rolled your eyes away to ponder the things your own soul took for granted
|
and your own loneliness,
|
but I digress.
|
'Cause you'd say
|
Remember the time I called you a river
|
fat with your own rain?
|
I guess you took me a little too seriously.
|
You'd say It's not just you, it's just your indifference that causes my worry.
|
I can see you saying this to me.
|
Myself, I don't have anyone to blame except your self-appointed sacrifice to save me.
|
Though you know nothings ever gonna change you try your baby, baby, baby's.
|
And now, sometimes I still relive your benediction.
|
Sounds like the voice of a thousand angels
|
armed to rescue me.
|
Sometimes
|
I still paint my door red and say a prayer that your spirit won't pass there.
|
That all these wisdoms of a lifetime
|
of just-like-yous has set me free.
|
And you'd say
|
Remember the time I called you a kiss blown from a thousand miles away?
|
I guess you took me a little too seriously.
|
Yes I know it's not just me, it's my bravado that causes my worry.
|
I can see you saying this to me.
