What am I gonna
Get you girl?
I want to buy you
The whole wide world
All I got is a letter jacket
And a mood ring
Sometimes I see you
Standing in the hall
And I can't say
A thing at all
Deep inside I'm
Writing you poetry
Yes I am

I almost love you
I can almost feel your kiss
Almost promise my heart
But my promise is
More like a wish
Ooh, I don't know
What all this means
But girl, I can't get you
Out of my dreams
Every time that we get close
It's almost

Yesterday I saw you
On the hood of a car
With an older guy he
Was playing his guitar
You gave him your smile
I could have cried
But I just froze
Should I stand up to him?
Should I pick a fight?
Should I get you to run away
With me tonight?
I don't know how to get there
Or where we'd go
Don't you know

I almost love you
I can almost feel your kiss
Almost promise my heart
But my promise is
More like a wish
Ooh, I don't know
What all this means
But girl, I can't get you
Out of my dreams
Every time that we get close
It's almost

In love
It's almost
The right stuff
It's almost
The flight of a
Pure white dove
It's almost
True love

I almost love you
I can almost feel your kiss
Almost promise my heart
But my promise is
More like a wish
Ooh, I don't know
What this all means
But girl I can't get you
Out of my dreams
Every time that
We get close
It's almost

Love
It's almost
The right stuff
It's almost
The flight of a
Pure white dove
True love

It's almost
Oooh love
It's almost
The right stuff
It's almost
The flight of a
Pure white dove
It's almost
True love

Yeah

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
