My Oldest Friend Lyrics
Ask me questions that you thought were lies
Give me shelter under troubled skies
Give me faith to know I'm right this time
I see the caring in your eyes
Chorus:
These feelings are so deep and heavy
There's a swelling on the inside
Something far beyond the human mind
I see the colors swirling in your eyes
I saidWell I don't know what I've been told
You'll never see the future cuz you'll never grow old
You got a secret that you won't tell
Telling ya baby, going straight to hell
Alright
I hear the sirens as they cry
I see the elephants charging by
But they don't even seem to realize
The fire ringing from the skies
(Chorus)
That's alright
I said I don't know what I've been told
Never see the future cuz you'll never grow old
You got a secret that you won't tell
Telling ya baby, going straight to hell
That's alright
That's alright
That's alright
That's alright
Give me shelter under troubled skies
Give me faith to know I'm right this time
I see the caring in your eyes
These feelings are so deep and heavy
There's a swelling on the inside
Something far beyond the human mind
I see the colors swirling in your eyes
You'll never see the future cuz you'll never grow old
You got a secret that you won't tell
Telling ya baby, going straight to hell
Alright
I see the elephants charging by
But they don't even seem to realize
The fire ringing from the skies
I said I don't know what I've been told
Never see the future cuz you'll never grow old
You got a secret that you won't tell
Telling ya baby, going straight to hell
That's alright
That's alright
That's alright
That's alright

Sorry if the lyrics aren't 100% right--- i tried :)
Anyways, this is a really great song.... I'm not quite sure why more people don't know about this band. I think it's about someone who lives totally for the moment, but doesn't consider consequences.... sometimes that's good, sometimes that's bad. Thoughts anyone?
