I met you through a common friend
In the attic of my parents house
And though I didn't know it then
I soon was finding out
You are the roots that sleep beneath my feet
And hold the earth in place
The water runs away
And I hear your name
No, nothing has changed
There was this book I read and loved
The story of a ship
Who sailed around the world and found
That nothing else exists
Beyond his own two sails
And wooden shell
And what is held within
All else is sure to pass
And debate what's truly permanent
But when the wind starts to shift
There's no argument
I sing and drink and sleep on floors
And try hard not to be annoyed
So when I'm suffering through some awful drive
You occasionally cross my mind
Well are you?
Oh, you are the roots that sleep beneath my feet
And hold the earth in place
Sunlight pours in
A lifetime melts away
And we share a name
On some picturesque grave

I am a blue blood
I will admit that
I dance in blue shoes and wear a blue hat
Live in a blue house
On a blue street
In a blue town
By a blue creek
I w...
First with your hands and then with your mouth
A downpour of sweat, damp cotton clouds
I was a fool, you were my friend
We made it happen
You took off...
I like your twisted point of view, Mike
I like your questioning eyebrows
You've made it pretty clear what you like
It's only fair to tell you now
that...
and you're constantly surrounded by that swirling stream of what is and what was.
Well, we've all made our predictions but the truth still isn't out.
...
Well I left my baby for a dream as lovely
For a love that's only in books I read.
I just left my whole life in a taxi cab.
Cause it's just a memory, ...
If you hate the taste of wine
Why do you drink it till you're blind?
And if you swear that there's no truth and who cares
How come you say it like you...
