lyrics

Hey listen,
My feet they can feel the ground
And this night has a brand new sound
Still dancing
But I can't seem to find my head
Can't remember what you just said
All reasons for control are gone, you know
And for the first time this mess turns to glow

I've been thinking about it lately
How we never wonder why
Why the truth always seem so crazy
When it stares you
Gazing into you mind

Somehow it's not as scary to drop the gun
For once I'm not gonna run
Like being held by a dream that you never had
But you're holding it in your hand
All reasons for control are gone, you know
The shapes that matter now are brighter, though

I've been thinking about it lately
How we never wonder why
Why the truth always seem so crazy
When it stares you
Gazing into you mind

In the place where there were no maybes
I was floating in the sky
Couldn't smell anything by daisies
Saw the ocean
Felt the high

I've been thinking, thinking lately...

Intoxicating euphoric ethereal psychedelic soul at it’s very best … and I do mean intoxicating, as the adventure never rises above heartbeat level, locked into a slow-paced groove bewitched by R&B inspirations from the late 60s and early 70’s that reach out of the darkness with an easy going vibe of love, joy and happiness.
