Spread Your Wings Lyrics

Oh babe, you know I'll take
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more
And time, time goes, time goes slowly by
When I know that it can fly
Come on spread your wings, spread your wings
Spread your wings

Oh babe, you know I'll take
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more
And time, time goes, time goes slowly by
When I know that it can fly
Come on spread your wings, spread your wings
Spread your wings
You can do anything, everything, anything

This is one of those songs that it's better to just let wash over you than actually think about, but Babe is either his ex-girlfriend, or one of his favored drugs, and he's either telling her (or the drug itself) that...

"of course I'll take more, I always take more, I have to take more, the passage of time is more bearable, come-on, go on this little trip with me!"

I love the way the whole thing sounds like Jason is just whispering in your ear.

Beautiful song about the ravages of addiction / loving someone who is destroying her/himself. This song seems to prefigure the concept of the album "Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space."

"Silver Soul" by Beach House sounds very similar to this, and also links love and drugs.
