Walk Around The Moon lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
I had found a stranger walking in the woods
She was not quite like anyone I knew
Red dress, polka dots, shadows in her head
She said, "You take me and I take you there"
Now she's goin' 'round and 'round inside of my head
I think I'm just a little too close to the edge
You took everything from me
And now I'm falling into this never-ending sea
I know you got your best to give to me
You know you hold me up
I know it seems that I have crossed into a dream
Since I, I been flyin', so fly
Big stack, jump back, crumble into you, boy
Good boy, won't stay as high as your eyes
Sister, twisted, my love to fly
But I wanted for you to give a little bit of everything
I know you got your best to give to me
You know you hold me up
I know it seems that I have crossed into a dream
Since I, I been flyin', so fly
It's blue and it's red
Found a new door to open my head
How could I go to bed?
Think I'll walk 'round the moon instead
It was blue and it was red
Found a new door inside of my head
How could I go to bed?
Think I'll walk 'round the moon instead
We're gonna take it so far down
I was just a little close to the edge
And you pull me back and said, "That's not how it ends
'Cause you gave me everything"
I'm flying into this kaleidoscope dream
I know you got your best to give to me
You know you hold me up
I know it seems that I have crossed into a dream
Since I, I been flyin', so fly
It's blue and it's red
Found a new door to open my head
How could I go to bed?
Think I'll walk 'round the moon instead
And it was blue and it was red
Found a new door inside of my head
How could I go to bed?
Think I'll walk 'round the moon instead
Madman's Eyes lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
Oh, little Billy's got a gun
Little Billy's having fun
Shooting bottles on the wall
Dreams the hero come home from war
Is this real? Is this make-believe?
We think we know how everything's supposed to be
Like a train blowing full steam ahead
Can't hear what you're saying with everybody screaming
I'm afraid, can't lie
Mama said, "Baby, don't you cry
In the dark, be the light
Don't let go, baby, hold on tight"
To believe is blind
Don't sacrifice another child
It's not black and white
'Less you're looking through a madman's eyes
The truth might not be crystal clear
But if might is right, there's no room for love in here
Pray to God and hope he's listening
Man with a gun brings the demons in
Oh, we live as if our hands are tied
Is it really so hard to do what we know is right
To protect the things that we hold dear?
Must we do things that we should never forgive?
I'm afraid, can't lie
Mama said, "Baby, don't you cry
In the dark, be the light
Don't let go, baby, hold on tight"
To believe is blind
Don't sacrifice another child
It's not black and white
'Less you're looking through a madman's eyes
Run and hide, don't ask why
Nobody wants to see the look in his eyes
When it's too late to untwist the mind
How do we face hatred with the love inside us?
I'm afraid, can't lie
Mama said, "Baby, don't you cry
In the dark, be the light
Don't let go, baby, hold on tight"
To believe is blind
Don't sacrifice another child
It's not black and white
'Less you're looking through a madman's eyes
Looking For A Vein lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
I'm down in this hole again
Trying to find a vein of something
Hammering these walls and hoping
Hoping to find my way through
What if I strike it rich as I wanna be?
Will it set me free or be just another hole to dig?
I can't give up on this
What am I supposed to do?
Hammering these walls down here
Trying to find a way out
But what if I strike it rich as I wanna be?
Would it set me free or be just another hole to dig?
What will it mean?
What will it mean?
What will it be?
What does it matter?
But I can't give up on this
Always trying to break on through
This air is choking me
But hammering's all I know to do
Do you remember when all this digging began?
I can't stop looking, but what am I looking at?
What will it mean?
What will it mean?
What will it be?
What does it matter?
Maybe I'll find a vein
Hammering these walls and hoping
The Ocean And The Butterfly lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
Once I had a dream
Stuck somewhere in between
The water and the beach, oh
Both worlds out of reach
So with elegance and style
Caught a wave and took a ride
An empty plastic bag
Starry night floats into the black
Look at how she dip and dive
But no one could ever know
How many miles she'll go
Or how she does with such elegance and style
Look at how she dip and dive
Take only what you need
Like the water and the seed
Yeah, so after we are gone
There'll be something good to carry on
All this elegance and style
Dancing with the butterfly, yeah
No maths, no miracle
It's all grown mechanical
Machine by cell's design
To float into the sky
With such elegance and style
The ocean and the butterfly
It Could Happen lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
The lid was on so tight
You just had to bust out
Remember that first night
It fell right into our hands
Oh, and it happened, yes it did
Cut the cord, could not believe it
How it happened, rocket ship
It's like we awoke as if we were dreaming
Could it happen?
Some kind of tripped-out, holy night
Up on the roof, laughing and crying
You were so pale, eyes wide
Like you might not get out alive
Oh, but it happened, and you did
Everyone laughing and dancing
How it happened, what a trip
When we woke up as if we were dreaming
How it happened, everything fit
Looking back, it's hard to believe it
When you wait so long
Remember just trying to prove it
But it takes so long
Forever remember the feeling
Oh, people, they were open wide
Marbled in shadows and light
When you're so loose, you're so tight
Suddenly you're on fire
Oh, how it happened, blew the lid
And got a taste, some kind of magic
It could happen like it did
Like we awoke, we were still dreaming
When it happened like it did
If I wasn't there, I wouldn't believe it
Something To Tell My Baby lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
Well, you know
Someday we're all gonna leave here
Maybe sooner than we wanted
But it's special because it's fleeting
All of the things that we did
What do we leave behind us?
Something that will remind them
Something to make them smile
When they think about it
Something to tell my baby
Something she could reach for
I need something to hold on to
Trying to believe
The stuff that dreams are made of
The cut that just won't heal
The smoke after the fire
As long as we remember
It's as good as real
It's as good as real
Something to keep us hopeful
Something to tell my baby
Forever at the ending
Impossible, but just maybe
Whenever they think about it
There's something to remind them
It's gonna make them smile
And maybe make things easier
Something to tell my baby
After Everything lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
Love is the glue, sticks us together
I know you know you know you know that it is the truth
I make mistakes, you make mistakes, but it don't matter
Because we got love, good love
You spilled the milk, but it don't matter, see I ain't crying
But nothing you do do could ever make me not love you
What you do, what you are, you are
We belong, we belong together
Oh baby, you and me
God dog, it is so beautiful
True love, you are my woman only
I wanna know do you feel alright, baby?
You know you are, yeah
After everything we've been through
I want you to know everything is gonna be all right
Ooh, you are badder than the baddest bad, baby
Badder than the baddest bad, babe
I wanna know, do you feel all right, baby?
After everything that we've been through
Everything is gonna be all right
Yeah, true love, you are my woman only
I wanna know, I wanna know, do you feel all right, baby?
After everything, everything, everything we've been through
All You Ever Wanted Was Tomorrow lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
All of us we're always trying to catch up
Call just to let me know what you think
How is this never quite enough
Lost and always trying to get back, can we get back?
Oh, call the doctor and the doctor came in
She said, "Where does it hurt? You know there's a pill for most everything"
Close your eyes, open wide, and we'll make you smile again
Some people believe in ghosts and some believe in aliens
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
Nobody could reach me
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Like some kinda love just opened you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
Oh, don't you feel like you're trying to catch up
Fear makes you jump a little too quick
Time, do we know when it's too late
Always trying to get it back, trying to get it back
But remember all the things that used to be real
Things to help you believe 'cause you wanna make sense of everything
Then there's the first time you crack and you think, "Everyone's laughing at me"
All at once, you're a ghost, you're some kind of alien
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
I just want to feel it
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Find some kinda love to open you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Out of my mind into the outside
Nobody could reach me
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Like some kinda love just opened you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
It's the only thing
The Only Thing lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
All of us we're always trying to catch up
Call just to let me know what you think
How is this never quite enough
Lost and always trying to get back, can we get back?
Oh, call the doctor and the doctor came in
She said, "Where does it hurt? You know there's a pill for most everything"
Close your eyes, open wide, and we'll make you smile again
Some people believe in ghosts and some believe in aliens
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
Nobody could reach me
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Like some kinda love just opened you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
Oh, don't you feel like you're trying to catch up
Fear makes you jump a little too quick
Time, do we know when it's too late
Always trying to get it back, trying to get it back
But remember all the things that used to be real
Things to help you believe 'cause you wanna make sense of everything
Then there's the first time you crack and you think, "Everyone's laughing at me"
All at once, you're a ghost, you're some kind of alien
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
I just want to feel it
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Find some kinda love to open you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I'm living in
Out of my mind into the outside
Nobody could reach me
If you could crawl out of the skin you're living in
Like some kinda love just opened you up
You know when you feel it
It's the only thing
It's the only thing
Break Free lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
She gives a wicked ride
Yes she does
She says "I make you wanna climb right out yourself"
Break free
But have to give up your life
But I was thinking
I love to get inside you
I drink your poison if you fill the cup
You make me crazy baby, don't let up
And if I'm fallin' I don't want to stop
I give up everything to have your love
I drink your poison if you fill the cup
I drink your tears but don't you
Cry cry, cry cry
She is a wicked heart
Yes she is
She goes down so hard
She might never come back
She's gonna break free
She loves to laugh
But I was thinking'
I'd love to get some of that, girl
She's gonna break free
She's gonna break free
That's right
Gonna break free
The way she does me
The way she hates to love me
You fill the cup, I drink you up, baby
I'll drink your poison if you fill the cup
You make me crazy baby, don't let up
Well, if I'm fallin' I don't want to stop
I'll give up everything to have your love
I'll drink your poison if you fill the cup
I'll drink your tears, yeah
Monsters lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
Broke gold toy soldiers lined up 1, 2, 3
Little kid and every thing I did just to save my paper queen
'Cause love won't let me go
No army's gonna save my soul
'Cause love won't let me go
Nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath the bed
Just the monsters in your head
I hear strange voices every step I take
No, you can't cross the ocean if you can't get past the break
Even if fear don't put you down
Oh, won't you lean on me while I'm around
No rope to hang the dead
No line to save the drowning man
Just the monsters in your head
Nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath the bed
Just the monsters in your head
Killer's eyes and painted faces
The Devil wants your soul, but Jesus saves
Traffic jam is an angry maze
The Devil wants your soul, but Jesus saves
Chutes and ladders, pick-up sticks
Counting cars and counting bricks
Driving past the ole five-and-dime
Can't get nothing for a nickel since a long, long time
I won't let you down
Nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath your bed
Just the monsters in your head
No rope to hang the dead
No line to save the drowning man
Just the monsters in your head
Love won't let you go
Love won't let you go
Singing From The Windows lyrics - Dave Matthews Band
When the war is over
And we go back to every day, every day
Will it be the same again
When you've been turned inside out and outside in?
Singing from the windows
Shadows on the wall, the way they dance
Not much of nothing
But look at this fire burning bright
Look at how the children play
None of us know what's to come tomorrow
But I'm not going out today
So dance with me like the time we've got is borrowed
Singing from the windows
Sirens in the dark, where are you going?
Pretend that it's nothing
But look at this fire burning wild
This is how we keep holding on
All days, all day long
But sometimes things just fall apart
No matter how we try, they won't stop
Singing from the windows
Something outside that I don't know
When the war is over
Picking up the pieces of every day
Memories in picture frames
Trying to put the inside out and the outside in
Singing from the windows
Walking down the hall, nowhere to go
Be good to see you
But I suppose when it's all said and done
This is how we keep holding on
All the days, all day long
But sometimes things just come apart
No matter how we try, they won't stop
Singing from the windows
Voices outside and no one knows
Singing from the windows
We'll get going again when the war is over
