Quest Lyrics - J Mascis Live At Cbgb's: The First Acoustic Show - Dinosaur Jr.

Turning towards a time so free 

Justice has finally escaped 

The dripping words of yesterday 

Set my feeble mind astray 

I yearn to see the glow of her eyes as I appear 

A sign of satisfaction could be the sweetest sound 

The staircase has one too many steps 

I've already started back down, come on 

I love the caterpillars 

Munching on the leaves, pitter patter 

Makes me forget my disease 

Bugs have feelers just like me 

And I'm feelin', oh, so lonely 

Disturbed in every sense of grace 

The lady wouldn't give me a taste 

Of the joy that means that much 

It lives within her touch 

Why won't you be my friend 

I would love to hold you tonight 

Even if we just pretend 

Why won't you be my friend? Why? 

Why won't you be my friend 

I would love to hold you tonight 

Even if we just pretend 

Why won't you be my friend, be my friend 

I'd love to meet the one who broke my heart 

I know she'd melt me with her dance 

Her subtle colors, her sweet smile 

But it's a shame, she'll never get that chance
