for jamie, who has been brought to her knees by her addiction:
Oh
Life
Is bigger
It's bigger than you
And than me
The lengths that we will go to
The distance in our eyes
Oh no
I've said too much
I haven't said enough
That's us in the corner
That's us in the spotlight
Losing our addictions
Trying to keep up with god
And I don't know if we can do it
Oh no
I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
Every whisper
Of every waking hour
We're choosing our confessions
Trying to keep an eye on us
Like a hurt lost and blinded soul
Oh no
I've said too much
I haven't said enough
Consider this
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought us
To our knees
Failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around?
Now I've said
Too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
That's us in the corner
That's us in the spotlight
Losing our afflictions
Trying to keep up with god
And I don't know if we can do it
Oh no
I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I know that I heard you laughing
I know that I heard you sing
I know I thought I saw you try
Was that just a dream?
Was that just a dream?
(could everyone please say a prayer for my friend jamie?
she really needs our support)
with apologies to mr. stipe.....
