there's something i've been meaning to tell you
about how my songs are sung they're all in foreign languages right there on the tip of my tongue souvenirs and variations the trash man took 'em away half-finished verses written on napkins lost in the mundane fray but i'm just waiting for that moment when the weight of the words will shift i don't care if you miss the meaning i just hope you catch the drift i got a big stack of songs at home that'd stretch from here to kentucky wish i'd had the chance to sing 'em all for you but i haven't been so lucky seems i'm always scrambling for a dollar there's been way too much of that stuff i tried to get off that road to nowhere but the landlord called my bluff so i'm still waiting for that moment when the weight of the words will shift i don't care if you miss the meaning i just hope you catch the drift so once again i'm stepping up to the microphone somebody's gotta do it i guess whatever crime you're trying to pin on me don't bother i'll gladly confess they told me stop singing in foreign tongues and i would if i only knew how you're gonna hear me on the radio a thousand years from now and i'll be waiting for that moment when the weight of the words will shift i don't care if you miss the meaning i just hope you catch the drift copyright Samm Bennett - all rights reserved back to Lyrics Table of Contents |
