On A Rolling Ball

I don't need your worn out love anymore
Tug my heartstrings one more time, oh no
Remember when you snuck in through his bedroom window
or socks I found beside the bed that weren't mine or yours?
It's been too long since you've been honest with me baby.

I'll help you down off that high-horse you're on
and if you don't care I'm out of here by dawn
It doesn't matter, I don't love you anyway,
but this whole thing would make a heck of a story
Just suppose I told it right here right now. . .

You were waiting for me after school
we weren't worried about what to do
we walked to the coffee shop to talk
the hours passed by like minutes in New York.

We were in love once as we both well know,
but you have stayed and I have grown
Treat me like I have a clue in my head
'cause all along I knew you was playin' on someone else.

There's a corner cafe
It stays open all the night
I went inside to escape the world
It's my favorite place to hide

Old man in the corner
been complaining about the cold
put on your smile and coat
your mind doesn't have to grow old

Tell 'em that it's raining inside my head again
Look at us we're struggling to make this life begin
Tell 'em I'll be waiting for that sunny day
Look at me I'm struggling, I just can't find my way

In the meantime I'll be waiting,
hoping for a sign
Share a cup with me my lover
you always ease my mind

Tell 'em that it's raining inside my head again
Look at us were struggling to make this life begin
Tell 'em I'll be waiting for that sunny day
Look at me I'm struggling, I just can't find my way

There's a corner cafe
It stays open all the night
I went inside to escape the world
It's my favorite place to hide

Too many times you were all alone
he left you behind cryin' by the phone
You weren't born to lose but losing him is wise
you've got a new fool
and he's just about my size

Live your life just how you love to live it
and things will all fall into place.
Take your strife and try your best to sing it.
In the end you meet your friends.

There is something I must tell you girl,
been building up so long
see, all the times I served as your love consultant
I wanted to be there myself

Live your life just how you love to live it
and things will all fall into place.
Take your strife and try your best to sing it
In the end you meet your friends.

I love you more than it would seem
I love you more than it would seem

Love to me is not a total stranger
but love to me don't make no sense.
Love can be a capsule full of danger,
but that's a risk I'll have to take.

I love you more than it would seem
I love you more than it would seem

I'm sorry I waited so long but the
time was so wrong.
I know its just a song but I love you
Things ain't what they seem to be
I have tried to conceal but love overwhelms me

Sitting on the wall
watching future goin' past
a million births a single day,
a million flags at half mast

The eyes bear holes in creation
a visual vacation

"Would you care for coffee sir?
I can't help but notice your weary head."
"What's wrong with sleep" I answered her,
"I think I'll have some milk instead."

The eyes bear holes in creation
a visual vacation

We work our whole lives
for happiness and bread
don't let me know
the truth about where we've been led.

Every day it's the same old thing
get up, get dressed, I got to sing

So I'm sitting on the wall
staring into the eyes of a girl
everyone is staring at me
ratio is one to the world

The eyes bear holes in creation
a visual vacation

There's a scared child behind angry words.
Sometimes what you say is so absurd.
I am reaching out against the trend.
You'll still find me here if you need a friend.
I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound.
I will wait for you love. Come around.

Life was simpler without you here
when your problems didn't reach my ear.
I will borrow you for this night
and to sorrow we will say goodbye.

I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound.
I will wait for you love. Come around.

When the people seem to lose their voice
and are victims to the evil choice,
Can we rise from this darkness yet?
Can we live our lives without regret?

I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound.
I will wait for you love. Come around.

There's a wisdom for this crazy time.
There's a hopefulness that is sublime.
We will follow the better way,
reach for beauty today.

I just don't understand why you're bringing me down
when there's so much madness to be found,
when my mind is finally halfway sound.
I will wait for you love. Come around.
I will wait for you love. Come around.
I will wait for you love. Come around.
