the summer's calling me down there
where the season's never safe
but how can i leave my place without a change
all dolled up in vintage style
and flowers in my hair
i wonder when the tide will slap my face
i'll go down,
wear my sandles in the sun
try not to stir the fish below my feet
i'll go down,
ten more days and i'll be done
no worry 'bout the faith beyond my reach
shadows dancing right along
impressions that i leave
the shining star folows me everywhere
the bag under my arm is full
of people that i know
the pigeon tries to tell me i don't care
i'll go down,
wear my sandles in the sun
try not to stir the fish below my feet
i'll go down,
ten more days and i'll be done
no worry 'bout the faith beyond my reach
i'll go down where the sun signs me
i'll go down
i'll go down where the sun signs me
i'll go down,
wear my sandles in the sun
try not to stir the fish below my feet
i'll go down,
ten more days and i'll be done
no worry 'bout the faith beyond my reach
People
i will try to find my soul, hide it in a bucket where the rainman never goes
and since i haven't gone too far there's still a hope it'll be where the people are
breathing in the morning rain
i remember how he promised that he'd be back again
everyone's here but they can't see
there's no one left to beleive but me
i will try to find myself, pull from the fron and turn me inside out
do you really think i'm free, and will you be the one to remember me?
run to the wind and try to fly
i'm tied to the ground and i don't know why
people say there's a right way
i smile to myself cuz it's not today
and when the grass grows above my head
i know i'll be on top instead of
cowering under the unknown
don't tell me to sit pretty, i won't
i will fly
i will fly
when i finally find my soul it'll surely tell you where to go
and then i know that i'll be free and no one will ever be the boss of me
run to the wind and try to fly
i'm tied to the ground and i don't know why

and when the grass grows above my head
i know i'll be on top instead of
cowering under the unknown
don't tell me to sit pretty, i won't
i will fly
i will fly
Wading
i'm waiting for you now
just blurt it, don't hold anything back
from me, be truthful, so gentle
and don't stop now
you're talking, i'm watching
lips trembling, forming words that never
seem to reach, my hands block out anything i don't want to hear
and don't stop now
i was there for you when your tear slid down the hill
and now that i need you here you sit and wallow in your own pool
i'm always treading water, it keeps my head above the wake
you think i drift forever
