Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You don't have to tell me
What you're still looking for
Two arms to hold you
And a voice to say
"That's alright, you can spend the night"
Well, come around
[Verse 2]
'Cause I've been there and
And these are the notes from the overground
The World Saxophone Quartet
The smell of violets
And a passin' friend
Won't let you down
[Verse 3]
Listen to the rhythm of the rain fallin'
Say you're gonna change your foolish ways
Make a promise, break a promise in the same day
It goes the same way, anyway
So you pray for silence
And it's sadness and it's violence
To be washed away, one day
[Verse 4]
I understand that state
You've reached of being unreachable
Somewhere out there where only the music plays
Loneliness and being alone
Don't always mean the same
Who needs the movie?
You can see the music anyway
[Verse 5]
A sketch for winter , a burgundy and sanctuary
Can make me stay
When I feel that way
And if my words don't say the things
That they were meant to say
And if confusion comes
And carries all my words away
And if you still don't understand
I wanna hold your hand
And look at it this way
[Verse 6]
Someone singing's better than
The war they're winnin'
Wingin' it's way, your way or my way
Any day, anyway
