In the picture is a tepee. I can handle this every day. I'm down here at johnny's restaurant, and so. I don't care about em lagging in their way. Oh, the principles of power.
Well, I guess it bothers me. Because I can't convince her of a thing. I can't talk my way. I can't even sing. . And it builds into this quest. Until I come to rest at last.
I said "I love you". She began to cry. She said she needed a friend. I said "I'll try". Soon we'd say nothing. Somehow I never wondered why. . You see, she left me.
Well, it seems no one can protect you. And your friends just don't understand. When your hopes and your courage neglect you. And no arm long enough to lend a hand.
Sunrise and everything tries again. To muster up the courage all in. Once again a simple fact. All I have to nourish. . That all things are possible. (Imaginations never end).
Sometimes when you worry. The tendency to hurry. Can make your vision blurry. And blind you. You might shake and you might stammer. Or dance like mc hammer.
Every time the water breaks and soaks me to the bone. I remember what I left behind by sailing off alone. Pitch and yaw through hurricane, my position is unknown.
Finally I figured out. But it took a long, long time. But now there's a turn about. Maybe 'cause I'm trying. . There's been times, I'm so confused. All my roads, they lead to you.
Music: john popper. Lyrics: john popper/rich vink. . Sometimes we try to reach the stars. And sometimes we just try. Sometimes we try to live a little.
Be, Be the charming type,. Take off your gloves and show what they hide,. Please, please my naked wrists,. With your hands and fingertips. And please, baby get on your knees,.
And if I take a different tack. Well then forgive me if the long way round. Confuses up the point until you're numb enough to hear. That you're using the anointing oil like it's sacramental beer.
I might be wrong but I might be right. Anyhow I know I tried. I better leave, I better leave. I better stop. . I like her taste when it fills my soul.
Music & lyrics: john popper. . Well she hated the 4th of july. Bombs bursting in air, and she'd never know why. She'd keep me up all night, too terrified to cry.
I'll hold you like a flower. Stroke your hair, look in your eyes. And I can wait for hours. Now that you've changed my life. . I've been waiting for you.
Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I only want you to have some fun. . I was dreamin' when I wrote this. Forgive me if it goes astray. . But when I woke up this mornin'.
The sun is warm as the day is long. I just got the feeling I can do no wrong. I've got a long way to walk, can't afford my next meal. I tell a few lies but my hunger is real.
Gonna get wild if that's okay. I don't need your blessing anyway. But I get crazy, crazy sometimes. I just wanna warn you. . So get out your camera, gather round.
I'm looking for some kind of sign. My dream is made of gold. I tread upon with muddy feet. The fever leaves me cold. . I'm stretched across a thousand miles.
Music & lyrics: john popper. . What about the time. When you seemed to need a friend. Not to be your champion. At least I could pretend. And it took so long to know you.
Moonlight's in her eyes and I can't see three feet in front of me. And it's the middle of the day. Herculean tasks, they come and go so easily. When her rods and her cones play.
