Intro * * Well I used to get high * And dance all around the house * Cleaning rearranging * While I'd let it all out Those happy times I'd say to myself This is it don't stop All will be well If you only never stop the clock * * Gotta learn to cut losses * And recognise new truths * Or you'll never get anywhere that is of any use Sometimes you can't see the sea Even from the boat So whatever hints you get You better hurry and take note * * I'm here because I knew that this time I'd be haunted * Visited by peaceful ghosts who knew what I really wanted Here's hoping I could be you and I make a toast * * I'm here because they call it foreign * And I felt so slow but I heard you calling Now you're gone and you're all I want * I forgot that's what people do They pair off two by two Until one of them turns blue * * Don't have much practice in really needing someone * So I need you to show me how it can be sensibly done 'Cause I need you like a string needs a kite to get to the sky * * I look for the sound of the wind to put in my headphones * To help these walls dissolve take me to another zone 'Cause I'm an animal and I have one life You're an animal and you have one life * do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do turn bluuuuue *
