From every shadow there are things that follow you |
|
From your late night dead end job |
|
From the old neighborhoods where you grew |
|
There's a fallen satellite |
|
(Natalie) That keeps me awake at night |
|
There's a chocolate fondue |
|
(Natalie) With no nutritional value |
|
There's a ground invasion |
|
(Natalie) With complete color coordination |
|
There's a slit on the screen |
|
(Natalie) That is not a trampoline |
|
There's a him with a hand on the heart |
|
And all these things will follow you |
|
And all these things will follow you |
|
Staying locked inside all day is no big deal |
|
But I've yet to read a travel brochure |
|
That could change the way that I feel |
|
It's suffocating in the car |
|
(Natalie) That's just the way some families are |
|
It's a book you'll get around to read |
|
(Natalie) It's a pet that you forgot to feed |
|
It's an ex-boyfriend you can't forget |
|
(Natalie) A godparent you've never met |
|
It's a fear that began |
|
If one single Elvis fan can be wrong |
|
The other 49 odd million screaming others also can |
|
Ah... |
|
And those things will follow you |
|
And those things will follow you |
|
And their lights will shine right through |
|
So when you open up your eyes |
|
They will know you when they do |
|
Did you steal my pen? I left it here |
|
(Natalie) You mean the one behind your ear? |
|
You're just a piece of work, that's all |
|
(Natalie) Take me and hang me on the wall |
|
Away from where the guards linger |
|
(Natalie) You touched the painting with your finger |
|
And I was placed under gallery arrest |
|
(Natalie) It's a chance to wear your Sunday best |
|
And look sharp on the stand |
|
And raise my right shaking hand |
|
And swear everything I say is true |
|
On a first edition copy of Peter Pan |
|
Ah... |
|
And those things will follow you |
|
And those things will follow you |
|
And their lights will shine right through you |
|
So when you open up your eyes |
|
They will know you when they do |
|
And all those things will follow you |
|
And those things will follow you |
|
And their lights will shine right through you |
|
So when you open up your eyes |
|
They will know you when they do |
|
Yeah, when you open up your eyes |
|
They will know you when they do |
|
Yeah, when you open up your eyes everyone will know its you |
