lyrics

I was split in two
By friendly faces in a crowded room.
On 23rd and 7th avenue
We shuffled cards and drew a hand.
You hummed a savoy tune,
Pressed against me, I was leaving soon.
We turned our eyes up to a jealous moon
And muttered something about the one good land.

Now there's nobody else,
I want to be around,
I'm not myself.
I must admit I've never done this well.

I wish you'd save your words
And play the sweetest song I ever heard.
Show me how to kill a mockingbird
Or kick some sand across the line.
But can you understand?
I cannot claim to be no constant man,
But I'll be waiting here to lend a hand
If you got something on your mind.

Now there's nobody else,
I want to be around,
I'm not myself,
I must admit I've never done this well
And I don't have so much to offer.

Now she fights for air,
Deflating egos in the time she spares,
With that piercing San Francisco stare
And several million dollar sounds.
So take the sky by storm
And wander miles off beyond the shore.
Just save some time to let me keep you warm
And be your senses on the ground.

Now there's nobody else,
I want to be around,
I'm not myself,
I must admit I've never done this well.
I was only born to watch the game.
And any fool can see
It takes a miracle to satisfy me,
But I always knew I liked your honesty
And the music in your name.

Yeah there's nobody else,
And I want to be around.
I must admit I've never done this well x 4
