daydreams spill from my overgrown head like a running river flowing out to sea and it seems to me that folks will never know just what it was like to die while writing a song it's a little uncomfortable to remember all the things locked away behind closed doors so i try to describe one more lousy day lying to myself it keeps me going to strong to remember your fast hips and legs it reminds me what i've done i'll never be able to forget your love but i'll regret it everyday it's like the candle wax that holds closed an envelope unstable but satisfying enough to dream that it will hold on as long as you need it and then just as easily let go forget the simple things that plague your youth remember only what you need it takes a strong man to clear his head of faithful memories but it's worth the wait it keeps me going to strong to remember your fast hips and legs it reminds me what i've done i'll never be able to forget your love but i'll regret it everyday if tomorrow you wonder what happened to me today keep the image in your mind, the one where i'm smiling when the days were easier than now if the anchor falls, you won't lose it all you'll just lose me don't rejoice too loud, you may wake the neighbors it keeps me going to strong to remember your fast hips and legs it reminds me what i've done i'll never be able to forget your love but i'll regret it everyday
