It may be years until the day My dreams will match up with my pay.
"Mushaboom" |
Because there's just so much in a day now, I keep writing in much more abstract terms, like I don't try to write about what happened anymore. It would be impossible.
Leslie FeistBy nature of me being the one singing it and writing it there is always an innate bit of autobiography there ... but I think I learned years ago that you don't get songs that have that long stride and that pivot-hinge ability if it's too much diary entry.
Leslie FeistI know I'm sane I don't give a care for the crown or the shield I will not protect you or happily yield To the one who makes me come undone
Leslie FeistOld dirt road (Mushaboom) Knee deep snow (Mushaboom) Watching the fire as we grow (Mushaboom)
Leslie FeistDon't you wish that we could forget that kiss And see this for what it is That we're not in love
Leslie FeistOoh, I'll be the one who'll break my heart I'll be the one to hold the gun.
Leslie FeistI know more than I knew before I didn't rest I didn't stop Did we fight or did we talk.
Leslie FeistNo one likes to take a test Sometimes you know more is less.
Leslie FeistThe truth lied And lies divide Lies divide
Leslie FeistOne Two Three Four Tell me that you love me more Sleepless, long nights That was what my youth was for Old teenage hopes are alive at your door Left you with nothing But they want some more.
Leslie FeistOh, oh, oh You're changing your heart Oh, oh, oh You know who you are.
Leslie FeistSweet heart, bitter heart Now I can't tell you apart Cozy and cold Put the horse before the cart Those teenage hopes Who have tears in their eyes Too scared to own up To one little lie.
Leslie FeistOne, two, three, four, five, six, nine, and ten Money can't buy you back the love that you had then.
Leslie FeistThe cold heart will burst If mistrusted first And a calm heart will break When given a shake
Leslie FeistShe really poured it on. She always pours it on. That's Feist.
