lyrics

you took the long road
trying to find the shortcut
you left the west coast
to start a new life
and did it occur to you to think twice
to blink and swallow that pill
or drive on forward without a thought

I took the long road trying to find the shortcut
couldn't stand bedsores so I never got them
every time I went to open my eyes
I couldn't tell where I was
I couldn't see past the incoming bend

in LA no one uses their head
in LA no one looses their head

there is an unrealized energy between us
you and I
you and I
we talk and trickle out with the tide
close to water
you and I
we walk up to you standing without time
under palm trees
you and I

take my love don't beget
string it taut
don't let it go out of tune
say it now there's no better
time to start doing it well
take my love don't forget
what it is and who it's made by
say it then and repeat
all your words back to me for the rest of TIME
