I took a ride on a February morning,. Just getting over it and dealing with the mourning,. I started thinking out loud: I'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired,.
There's a blackbird perched outside my window. I hear him calling. I hear him sing. He burns me with his eyes of gold to embers. He sees all my sins. He reads my soul.
There's a void. You can't replace. You can try all you want, but it seems to haunt. Every pretty new girl's face. With bitterness. One it seems. Only feels so uncertain, just lights then curtains.
You said you heard me insincerely. And could see through me all too clearly. You saw me coming. I focused on the roads we drove. You closed your eyes and faked a sweet repose.
Held like water in your shaking hands. Are all the small defeats a day demands. 10-6 or 9-5 trying, dying to survive. Never knowing what survival means.
My confusion corner commuters. Are cursing the cold away. As December tries to dissemble. The length of their working day. . And they bite their mitts off.
If I had just one tear runnin' down your cheek. Maybe I could cope, maybe I'd get some sleep. If I had just one moment at your expense. Maybe all my misery would be well spent, yeah.
Cruisin'. . Baby, let's cruise away from here. Don't be confused, the way is clear. And if you want it, you got it forever. This is not a one night stand, baby.
Yes, it's so crazy right now. Most incredibly, it's ya girl, Bee. It's ya boy, Young. . You ready?. Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no no. Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no no.
I remember when, I remember. I remember when I lost my mind. There was something so pleasant about that place. Even your emotions have an echo in so much space.
You better take it from me. That boy is like a disease. You run and you try and you're tryin' to hide. And you're wondering why you can't get free. . He's like a curse, he's like a drug.
[Chorus]. Lately I been, I been losing sleep. Dreaming about the things that we could be. But baby I been, I been prayin' hard. Said no more counting dollars.
Could you be loved and be loved?. Could you be loved and be loved?. . Don't let them fool ya,. Or even try to school ya! Oh, no!. We've got a mind of our own,.
Life's too short to even care at all, oh. I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control, oh oh. These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh.
Come on, shake your body baby, do the conga. I know you can't control yourself any longer. Come on, shake your body baby, do the conga. I know you can't control yourself any longer.
Uh huh. Life's like this. Uh huh, uh huh. That's the way it is. 'Cause life's like this. Uh huh, uh huh. That's the way it is. . Chill out, what you yellin' for?.
The snow's coming down. I'm watching it fall. Lots of people around. Baby please come home. . The church bells in town. All ringing our song. Full of happy sounds.
I'm better. So much better now. I see the light, touch the light,. We're together now. . I'm better. So much better now. Look to the skies, gives me life.
I've made up my mind, don't need to think it over. If I'm wrong I am right, don't need to look no further. This ain't lust, I know this is love. But if I tell the world, I'll never say enough.
I came up, out of the water. Raised my hands, up to the father. Gave it all to him that day. Felt a new wind kiss my face. Walked away, eyes wide open.
