Call It In The Air Lyrics

Leave home today
Escape your region
It's in your head
Keep moving on.

Choose (slowly retrace) starlight (all Your good days)
No way to retrace (add them up)
When it's gone (you can never choose)
(None of you knew anymore than losing here)

Choose (none of you knew) starlight (anymore then)
No way to retrace (lose it here)
It has gone

Become your dad
Live unquestioned
It's in your head
Nostalgia is death!

Choose (Slowly retrace) starlight (All your good days)
No way to retrace (Add them up)
When it's gone (You can never choose)

Choose (none of you knew) starlight (anymore then)
No way to retrace (lose it here)
It has gone
Starlight, star bright
Starlight, star bright.
Can't depend on honest answers from dependent hands.
Won't accept an honest answer from an open hand.
(Say the words and I sign off, say the words and I sign off...)
Can't depend on honest answers from dependent hands.
Won't accept an honest answer from an open hand.
Starlight, star bright
Starlight, star bright.

I like it a lot too. The way this site wrote out the lyrics suck. It doesn't show how on the chorus the two vocal parts overlap. That's the part I love about the song. It reminds of Crush off Clarity.

It's not the site... it's the person who submitted the lyrics. And yeah, the overlapping part is great, it harmonizes well.

I'll submit a correction later then. I don't like unorganized lyrics like that.

This is one of my favorite songs.

What more is there to say? JEW showing their musical power yet again. If you haven't listened to this song, this is definately one not to miss. Well, then again, you should never miss any JEW song.

Great song, Great Band.

"nostalgia is death" --how true.

Cover art for Call It In The Air lyrics by Jimmy Eat World

This song rocks! It's about leaving something behind and realizing that you can't go back and relive all your memories. You have to let go in order to move on. I can't think of a good way to describe how it makes me feel.

yes, this song is really cool, but it sucks that jimmy is getting really popular now. This song is good and has hidden messages to its listeners like all songs do. But the middle is popular and Jim said it himself, the middle was the worst song he had ever written, it was to outgoing
