I wonder what I can do for a living
Something that makes you all proud
But won’t keep me up at night
If I could go straight down to the city
I would run every light
Then nothing would matter at all
Nothing would matter at all
I’ve made up my mind just to do as I’ve wanted
Something is ringing my ears
How we move side to side
So let me be sure and everyone notice
Why does it take all our time?
Then nothing can have us at all
I’m not sure now I can love you
I never said that I would
Get by on just getting by
And I think we should
Paint every town, up and then down
Then make it home dear darling
The wind in the trees
How it will shine
Let’s make it ours
Try as they might
Still it will burn
Then we’ll be gone
I won’t know another friend
But you’ve never been kind
I say we leave you behind
Open the shades lay down on the mattress
Somebody’s making the rounds
At least it just seems to be
The corner of my own street puts me over
I miss the ones that I know
So don’t we feel sorry now?
