library magic

The Head And The Heart

I'm drawn to that sorta library magic
Whisperin' through the dusty aisles
Watchin' all the thinkers read
Tryin' to keep a grown mans quiet's like
Pulling teeth on a winter's eve
Cracks and pulls and unfamiliar roads
I'm on this one to find out
Veggie gas and brothers harass
Can't stay healthy in a cloud of eyes
Listenin' to my every move
Just tryin' to survive
This self-imposed adventure
That selfishness drives
I can barely keep my head above the blue
Tryin' to keep it off me and you

But I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear water
Telling me you gotta hop in
For this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

Makin' music is what we do
Tryin' to weave the patterns for me and you
Tryin' to make the grasses breathe
And a grown man cry
Truth and life is where I gleam
Tangled up in a funnel's wind
Tryin' to come out walkin'
Understand it's beyond me talkin'
Tryin' to come out walkin'
Understand it's beyond me talkin'

I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop in
For this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

Bein' alone isn't lonely
It's sought after like a holiday
Bein' home is my vacation
Postcard dreams of a full-sized bed

Quit the band one too many times
Serious enough to get a rise
But he'll hop in the next mornin'
For another drive
That's a promise
The best advice we ever received is for you
And me to stay together
It's easy to begin and hard to end
I'm just glad to go through it all
With you as friends

I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop
In for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days
There will always be better days
