(no subject)

I said was it you
who spoke the words
that things would happen but not to me
things are gonna happen naturally
oh I'm taking your advice
and I'm looking on the bright side
and I'm balancing the whole damn thing
oh but in often times those words
they get tangled up in the lines
and the bright light turns to night
oh until the dawn it brings
another day we'll sing about
the magic that was you and me

'cause you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
and others just read of
others only dream of
of the love that i love

see I'm all about them words
over numbers, unencumbered
and numbered words
a hundreds of pages pages pages
for words, more words than I had ever heard
and I feel so alive

cause you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
and others just read of
and if you could see me now
well I'm almost settled
you and I, you and I
not so little, you and I anymore
mmmm
and with this silence brings a moral story
more importantly evolving
is the glory of a boy

'cause you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
and others just read of
and if you could see me now
well I'm almost finally out
'm finally out of
I'm finally, well I'm almost finally
well I am free
well that's me

oh and it's okay that you had to go anyway
oh just remember the telephones
well, they're workin both ways
and the more you follow through
there's always more left over
and not too much explaining to do
and if ever ever ever you find your love
I will be your lifeline
I will never miss a phone call
but if I never never never never never never hear them ring
if nothing else I'll thank the bells inside
they finally found you someone else
and that's okay
'cause I'll remember everything you say

because you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
what others only dream of
yeah if they could see me now
they could see that you and I both loved
what you and I spoke of
and others often read of
and if they could see me now
they'd see I'm almost finally
yeah, I'm finally
well, I'm almost finally finally out of words.
