i'm gonna get me a ride and rent a room on the coast
i'm gonna make it alright
and when they tell you i'm gone, you might know it or not
but you'll fake a surprise
i'm gona be a veriaine
i'm gona break with my plans
i'm gonna trip for a while
and maybe from time to time i'll send you a couple of liner
about the places i've found
how my eyes need a rest
how these trees bring shade
we were birds
we were lovers
now we're something else
remember just how it feels to put your hands on the wheel
and play a trick on your karma
sometimes you've got to avoid what you cannot avoid when you stick to the drama
remember just how it feels to take a thought like it is
and turn it back upside down
so when you need it again you will be forcer to understand
you had it all in your mind
how my eyes need a rest
how these trees bring shade
we were birds
we were lovers
now we're something else
you need the love
i got the love
i got the love for your mama
you need the rain
well, i got the rain
i'll be the rain on the summer
you need the time
i got the time
i'm gonna love you forever
so if you need me
hop into your running shoes
i'm gonna pick you up
i'm gonna dance your blues
how my eyes need a rest
how these trees bring shade
we were birds
we were lovers
now we're something else
how my eyes need a rest
how these trees bring shade
we were birds
we were lovers
now we're something else
