lyrics

If you go back in time don't mess with your former self
In the zombie apocalypse aim for the head
You've got to run got to fly like your life depends on it
Don't get caught lying to yourself
Or the man will come and get you
Lock you down deep in suburbia

Your love's got me flying high above the day
Your love's got me flying high anyway

The past comes in and out of focus
Got to part this sea somehow like Moses
When I close my eyes I can hear their voices
And on the count of three
You'll snap your fingers once

This crack in the windshield is growing but let's wait another day
Did you say less is more or more is more or more is less yesterday
You've got to run got to fly like your life depends on it
Don't get caught lying to yourself
Or the man will come and get you
Lock you down deep in suburbia

Your love's got me flying high above the day
Your love's got me flying high anyway
Your love's got me flying high above the day
Your love's got me flying high anyway

I've written 1,000 songs, starved, played on the street, played to the crowd, survived band explosions, self-implosions, and have had my heart broken, dreams crushed and soul thinned all over the place chasing that perfection of Mr. Tambourine Man -- and I wouldn't trade a minute of it. ... more
