Woke up this morning I had a plan but didn't know where it would take me Put on my shoes and Walked out the door to see what I could find I have to admit this I don't know exactly what I'm doing here I have to admit this Everything around me is changing You called my bluff I need you as much as the sky needs the rain Hey, love, I know it's been a long, long time since we first met But I have to tell you something I'm not well and I haven't been well for a long, long time And I don't think I'll get any better Unless, say, you were to love me You were to love me

Swimming 03:37
Swimming with you And millions of fish by our side We can play hide and go seek with eels We can eat all our meals under the sea With sharks and dolphins too And if you should ever get blue Think of me Swimming with you We can chase all the clouds from the sky And just to get by, fade away Swimming with you is so great I like to think of us together, forever Swimming with you is so great I like to think of us together, forever Swimming with you Enjoying our time you and I We can jump on the back of a whale We can grab a fish and just set sail away To a far-off, far-off place And if it should be cloudy that day Think of me Swimming with you We can let all our worries pass by And everything on our minds fades away Swimming with you is so great I like to think of us together, forever Swimming with you is so great I like to think of us together, forever

Mr. Jones 05:36
They say Mr. Jones isn't doing so well Well, I haven't seen him so long, I couldn't tell He used to be my best friend, my old pal I wonder what's happened since then, what's happened to him now So, hey Mr. Jones It's been a long, long time and I haven't seen you Why don't you come around and talk, talk to me? I remember some days back a here or two We'd sit around and talk about what we knew Those days, they were many, but know he has few I must have missed something important, I wish I had been there, been there to see it So, hey Mr. Jones It's been a long, long time and I haven't seen you Why don't you come around and talk, talk to me? I have fond memories of sitting on park benched, talking about summer I have hundreds of photographs hanging on my walls I have shoeboxes filled with ticket stubs and postcards I had a friend So tell me where I can go to see him So I can say sorry for taking so long I found his picture in yesterday's paper I hope it's not too late to tell you how I feel So, hey Mr. Jones It's been a long, long time and I should have come to see you I want you to know that lately you've been talking to me Hey, Mr. Jones I hope it's not to late to tell you I've missed you I want you to know you were always a good friend to me

Do you feel what I feel? Well the evidence is bouncing around me From the rays of the sun I think for a god You're doing just fine for a while It'd getting heavier all the time If the grass could issue The orders of what is to be And the rain could make it true I bet that the world Would stop spinning for a time To wait and see what I'd do I will never forget the time You grabbed my hand in the park And kissed me on the mouth It was raining that day And you're shirt was all wet And you said, "Come on, don't be scared it's me" And I said, "What the hell" And I thought this is fun And that we should do it again some time And I knew you were mine Do you feel what I feel Well the clouds overhead just can't stop This momentum that I'm picking up I think for a man With me reputation I've found What I need, and I am doing just fine If the world would allow me To open up the heavens one time I would make you the sun for a day So now, tell me this What exactly must I do To prevent this feeling from going away? Remember the day we sat on your couch And I tickled you until You started to cry? We ended up on your floor You said, "Hold me" and I did And then we fell asleep When we woke up The sun was shining in your room You turned over and kissed me one more time And I knew you were mine

Sad Song 06:24
Thinking of a sad song Wondering if this is the best that you can give me After you have gone My hands are still tied, going 'round the circles Oh they way we used to talk Talk for hours, swimming in nothing but words, words, words It's you again, it's nice to see you hear You haven't left me Hoped it'd always be Laughing and ice cream running down your chin I caught it (yes I do remember) Caught it with my tongue, oh, and your eyes open wide Oh the way you stare You stare at me like a child who just found his way home When you look at me, I can feel your heart beating inside me I don't ever want to close my eyes When you left I head the ground shaking form how fall I fell When I'm trying to remember the sound of your voice And we have so many days So many secrets left to tell I will have you… always Thinking of a sad song And dreaming, how did I ever live before this? Now that it's been done And over, my head's still spinning 'round in circles Never miss a day Without staring, looking at your picture in its frame I caught it, I thought I saw you staring back at me from the wall Well I guess it's just a dream Do you remember when I saw you playing with you hair in the rain? And I called you over I reached out and messed it right back up again That was how I knew I could stand here doing this forever And I'm still standing with you In the puddle, as long as I close my eyes When you'd laugh I could feel the ground shaking, laughing with you as well And I try to bring it back Bring back that sound into my head And we have so many days So many secrets left to tell If I could have you always Thinking of a sad song And wondering if this is the best that you can give me

Outside 03:23
I've been blinded by the long-term wrinkles of my head I see nothing but an endless field of anticipation I've been waiting for something exciting to come around I can sit and listen patiently for any sound But it never does And what of our love That we lost a long, long time ago? And what of your touch? I found it on the ground beneath my feet When I called you I called you outside I wanna be big, I wanna run I wanna lay down my cards No more of this hurry up and wait to be patient I wanna let go of this old man That weighs on my neck and Fills me up with all this sadness

It's Lynn, the cracksmoking bus driver She's higher than the clouds It's Lynn, the cracksmoking bus driver She's higher than, higher than me. And I smoke two pounds a day from my purple bong Lynn, she drives a school bus And on two wheels she rides Lynn, when she drives on the freeway It feels like we're falling off the side It's Lynn, the cracksmoking bus driver She's higher than the birds It's Lynn, the cracksmoking bus driver She's higher than, higher than me. And I just bought another dime bag from the hobo off the street Lynn, when she drives It's like we're on the race track Lynn, sometimes I think she smokes More than just crack Lynn, Lynn Lynn, Lynn Sit, sit down, she says Sit, sit down, she says Sit, sit down, she says Sit, sit down, she says Don't write on the seats or you'll get written up But she never catches me, she don't give a fuck, yeah! She never wears color, she only wears black So you give her the middle finger when she turns her back to us! It's Lynn, the cracksmoking bus driver She's higher than the clouds It's Lynn, the cracksmoking bus driver She's higher than, higher than me.
