See them walking down the street. And I feel like a deer in headlights when I turn on the TV. I keep wandering ’round my living room just wondering how we’re gonna survive. See the light stream in the window. Call my mother on the phone. Said there’s talking in the kitchen of selling my childhood home. And everywhere I look around, it seems we’re always saying goodbye. And I don’t know just what to do. I’m fine, but feel I’m breaking through. My world’s a honey shade of blue. I’m crying. Wish I wasn’t hanging on, but it was coming all along. It was coming all along. I know I might sound existential if this is the first time that we meet. But I swear there’s some potential in the actuality. And I’m trying to be brave these days, but oh I’ve still got Nora on the phone. And she’s saying hold your temper. Hey there Maggie, slow your roll. I know that you still hate him for the way he hurt you back at school.” And though it’s dark out in the distance, it’s looking like there might be a new soul. And I don’t know just what to do. I’m fine, but feel I’m breaking through. My world’s a honey shade of blue. I’m crying. Wish I wasn’t hanging on, but I know it won’t last for long. So fast. It’s fading out of view. I’m flying. Long past 22. So high. Can’t find the moment it went wrong. But it was coming all along. I’m fine, but feel I’m breaking through. (It was coming all along.) My world a honey shade of blue. (It was coming all along.) And I know it won’t last for long. It was coming all along. But it was coming all along. Drunk On the run. Not enough. Oh, and it’s so cold. When I give up, I feel love. Right down to my toes. And I see stars that never ever ever looked this bright to me. Feeling on your skin never felt this right to me. Holy roller, come on baby, someone hold me down. I’m drunk, but not drinking. Lost in wishful thinking. ’round and ’round and ’round it goes. I can hear them whispering. Call, but I’m not listening. Oh, and where it goes is somewhere no one knows. Time is up. You’ve had your fun. Oh, but it’s so loud. You hold your tongue, but one by one, the words slip out your mouth. And I see stars that never ever ever looked this bright to me. Feeling on your skin never felt this right to me. Holy roller, come on baby, someone hold me down. I’m drunk, but not drinking. Lost in wishful thinking. ’round and ’round and ’round and ’round and ’round it goes. I can hear them whispering. Call, but I’m not listening. Oh, and where it goes is somewhere no one knows. And if you meet me halfway, I’ll drive all night. Nobody’s gonna tell me it’s not right. You can’t take it away. It goes on and on and on and on, and on and on and on. I’m drunk, not drinking. Lost in wishful thinking. ’round and ’round and ’round and ’round and ’round it goes. I can hear them whispering. Call, but I’m not listening. Oh, and where it goes is somewhere no one knows. Oh and where it goes is somewhere no one knows. So Sick of Dreaming So you think you’re on the right track. Cruising on the bridge in your gray Cadillac. You think it’s easy. Walking on the water like there’s stepping stones. But when every little thing’s up for taking, oh, it makes me want to sing. My heart’s breaking. Oh, there ain’t no diamond ring you could buy me to take me home. Oh, cause I’m so sick of dreaming. Oh, and I’m all that I’m needing. Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Ooh, you think you’ve seen it all. Walkin’ ’round the city with the sun at your back. You think you’re so cool ’cause everybody knows you. But what’s so good about that? When every little thing’s up for taking, oh it makes me wanna sing. My heart’s breaking. Oh, there ain’t no diamond ring you could buy me to take me home. Oh, cause I’m so sick of dreaming. Oh, and I’m all that I’m needing. If you think that life without me’s like a heart attack, take a long look in the mirror and be good with that. Oh, cause I’m so sick of dreaming. Yeah yeah yeah. So he calls me up 15 minutes before the reservation and says he’s got Knicks tickets instead. I mean, I was at the restaurant! So I took the steaks to go, I had two martinis at the bar, and went to meet my friends down the street. I mean, what a loser! (I’m so sick of dreaming.) And by the way, the Knicks lost. Oh and I—I’m so sick of dreaming. And I’m all that I’m needing. If you think that life without me’s like a heart attack, take a long look in the mirror and be good with that. Oh, ’cause I’m so sick of dreaming. Yeah yeah yeah yeah. The Kill One of these days, I’m gonna wake up smiling. One of these days, I’m gonna cry. When all of the years start to blend in together, I watch ‘em disappear in your eyes. Remember the days we used to drive upstate? Singing indie rock songs in the car. You wore your fresh leather. And blamed it on the weather for being the reason you were so difficult. But so invincible. Irresistible, but I loved you still. You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses. In your white t-shirt, but I couldn’t fill the shoes you laid down for me, from the girls that came before. I was all the way in. You were halfway out the door. Oh I was an animal making my way up the hill. And you were going in for the kill. And you were going in for the kill. One of these days I’m gonna wake up fresh and wipe all the past from my eyes. Curl up next to you in tall grass, sunshine. And wrap my body’s shape ’round your side. Remember the days we used to ideate about what we would do all our lives? I’d be a singer and an old bourbon drinker. Oh, and we’d have a band on the side. I know I was so difficult, but so invincible. Irresistible, but you loved me still. I kept your secrets and stole your weaknesses. In your white t-shirt, but you couldn’t fill the shoes I laid down for you. From the guys that came before. You were all the way in. I was halfway out the door. Oh, you were an animal making your way up the hill. And I was going in for the kill. Oh, all of our lives. Was it worth it? Oh, or were we just wasting time? ’cause we were hurting. But I know that you know that I know you best. And I know that we both could forget all the rest. If we both can admit that we both were so difficult, but so invincible. Irresistible, but I loved you still. You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses. In your white t-shirt, but I couldn’t fill the shoes you laid down for me. From the ones that came before. I was all the way in. You were halfway out the door. Oh I was an animal making my way up the hill. And you were going in for the kill. Oh, I was going in for the kill. Oh, we were going in for the kill. If Now Was Then Standing on the edge of our old corner on Broadway. I passed a couple kids, and oh it felt like yesterday that we were holding hands and walking right down 15th Street. The wind was in my hair, and you had that red flush in your cheek. And I know you find it funny ooh, but I can’t seem to let it go. I keep wishing there was something to do. Oh, don’t you? But if now was then, I would get out of my head. I would touch your chest. I would break the bed. I would say the things that I never said. Oh the things I’d do, oh, if now was then. But you can’t take it back. Oh, you can’t take it back. When Anna threw that party, I remember seeing you. It’d been a couple years, and we locked eyes across the room. You were with your new girl. Oh, and I had brought a guy that I knew back in high school, but was so empty inside. I know you find...
