Quiet Library Sessions

1.
I took myself down to the bank Took all my money and I said thank you I spent it all just to fill my tank Spent my time trying to change you Trying to hold a fistful of sand But I hold tight with an empty hand And I think I finally understand I’ve been living on this liquid land I’ve been around I’ve seen the towns and mountains Seen a million clouds I’ve felt the rain come down Mirror, mirror on the wall When will the other shoe fall? Or should I stretch myself out real tall Like a tree growing leaves unafraid to fall? Pack up on the winds that blow From Timbuktu to Tokyo To tomorrow, toodle-oo, it’s been nice to know ya This one’s dedicated to the ones that grow up I’ve been around I’ve seen great towers and fountains I’ve heard the sound Of my own chest as it pounds Hands swing around Amounts of hours, who’s counting? Cuz I’m here and now I’ll die someday, I don’t care how I’ve seen some crowds Heard a few voices shouting I’ve had my doubts But you know that I’ll get by somehow
2.
I never got lost in the way you see me And you’re my dead end of the day Where I just don’t belong I put the white lights in the sky in your eyes And I would like to give it a try But not quite yet I've got this debt On my head One more regret I’ll run backwards just to get to you I’ll run backwards just to get to you I’ll run backwards just to get to you I’ll run backwards just to get to you I’ll run backwards I’ll run backwards I’ll run backwards I’ll run backwards If I was gonna tell you a lie I’d take time to search and properly find A place where I belong A place where I could withstand my own hand And I hope like hell I’m not damned Cuz heaven’s in my dreams at night I want to be there I want to be there I want to be there I want to be there
3.
It’s time to leave it all behind And step outside the zone Where it once used to feel so nice And comfortable No questioning if this is right Just take a chance on me tonight Wash away All of the sediment Will you stay? Or be a sentiment? And it’s strange How different it can get But it stays The way it’s always been Let’s build a boat, just you and I And call it our new home Sail to the corners of the sky And look down on the shoals I see myself in your eyes We shift and move just like the tide tonight
