words & music by jason mraz

|
The eye of the storm meets the eye of the mind sending it spinning
|
|
Spinning not knowing which way is up not knowing which way to go
|
|
The eye of the mind blushes in lust of all the answers for years of tears, years in fear..
|
|
|
|
Oh the bitter water; satiated, covered in salt
|
|
Keeping me afloat, moving me along
|
|
And I can see everything. I can see thru buildings..
|
|
All the shattered lives and the battered wives..
|
|
And everybody's hypnotized by the dancing light
|
|
TV sets making everybody go blind.
|
|
|
|
And I can see thru you.
|
|
And when I look inside I know..
|
|
|
|
That you are living in a fantasy world taking your time, running your mind on low
|
|
And you are living in a fantasy land holding nobody's hand but your own
|
|
I said, "I can see everything"
|
|
|
|
One drop of rain that's me and all the rest is you
|
|
Who shook these trees? Let me guess did they come in two's?
|
|
When you're dealing with the fruits of the universe
|
|
You shake that apple tree, life deals you an orange, either way you're cursed
|
|
|
|
Oh the bitter water, satiated, covered in salt
|
|
Keeping me afloat, and always moving me along
|
|
|
|
It's keeping me on top of the water
|
|
Keeping me on top of the world
|
|
Keeping me on top I'm looking out
|
|
just to see what everything is all about
|
|
and I know where it is.. just don't know exactly what it is..
