Tons Of Lyrics

And when I see you
I really see you upside down
but my brain knows better
it picks you up and turns you around
turns you around
turns you around

If you feel discouraged
that there’s a lack of color here
please don’t worry lover
it’s really bursting at the seams
absorbing everything
the spectrum’s a to z

This is fact not fiction
for the first time in years
all the girls in every girlie magazine
can’t make me feel
any less alone
I’m reaching for the phone
to call at 7:03
and on your machine I slur a plea for you to come home
but I know it’s too late
I should have given you a reason to stay
given you a reason to stay
given you a reason to stay
given you a reason to stay

this is fact not fiction
for the first time in years

I want to live where soul meets body ,
And let the sun wrap its arms around me,
And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing,
And feel, feel what it's like to be new.
Cuz in my head there's a Greyhound station,
Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations;
So they may have a chance of finding a place,
Where they're far more suited than here. 

Ba-da-ba-da-ba-ba,
Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-da-ba-ba,
Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da-ba-da-ba. 

I cannot guess,
What we'll discover,
When we turn the dirt,
With our palms cupped like shovels.
But I know our filthy hands,
Can wash one another's,
And not one speck will remain. 

I do believe it's true,
That there are roads left in both of our shoes.
But if the silence takes you,
Then I hope it takes me too.
So brown eyes I'll hold you near,
Cuz you're the only song I want to hear;
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.
Where soul meets body.
Where soul meets body.
Where soul meets body. 

And I do believe it's true,
That there are roads left in both of our shoes.
But if the silence takes you,
Then I hope it takes me too.
So brown eyes I'll hold you near.
Cuz you're the only song I want to hear;
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.

Cath, she stands
With a well intentioned man
But she can’t relax
With his hands on the small of her back
As the flash bulbs burst
She holds a smile
Someone will hold the crying child

And everybody asks what became of you
Your heart was dying fast
And you didn’t know what to do

Cath, it seems
That you live in a dying dream
In a hand-me-down wedding dress
On the arm of a man you detest

But you said your vows
And you closed the door
On so many men
Who would have loved you more

And everybody asks what became of you
Your heart was dying fast
And you didn’t know what to do

And whispers that it won’t last
Were running down the pews
Because my heart was dying that fast
I would have done the same as you
I would have done the same as you

How I wish you could see the potential
The potential of you and me
It’s like a book elegantly bound
But in a language you can’t read just yet

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

There are days when outside your window
I see my reflection as I slowly pass
And I long for this mirrored perspective
When we’ll be lovers, lovers at last

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

I will possess your heart
I will possess your heart

You reject my advances and desperate pleas
I won’t let you let me down so easily
So easily

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You got to spend some time, love
You got to spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

I will possess your heart
I will possess your heart
