Off the Ground

This is the way I see it
 This is the life I live
 This is the how to book for the heart I give
 This is the way I wake up
 This is the tale I write
 This is the prayer I pray in the dead of night
 And here's all my fearul moments
 Here's all the sounds I've heard
 Tangeled in the nothingness
 of the spoken word
 Hey-ey
 Don't you know
 I'm a layin' way too low
 I'm on my knees
 I'll pick myself up if you let me go
 Hey-ey I've been down too long at the lost and found
 Now I'm just gettin'
 Off the ground
 Well, I got my share of secrets
 Dozens of things I hide
 And maybe I'll let you in, but it might take time
 'cause you say that you want me near you
 And you smile when I run right by
 When I throw you a sideways glance you catch my eye
 But you got the patience, I don't
 You give the way I can't
 So you tell me you love me and I'm likely not to understand
 Hey-ey
 Don't you know
 I'm a layin' way too low
 I'm on my knees
 I'll pick myself up if you let me go
 Hey-ey I've been down too long at the lost and found
 Now I'm just gettin'
 Off the ground
 Part of me just can't stop talking
 Part of me is toungue tied
 Half of me is laughing
 And the other half
 is keeping track
 of every last tear
 I've cried
 But it's never without emotion
 It's never an easy ride
 And I've got to admit that it's so nice to have you by my side
 Hey-ey
 Don't you know
 I'm a layin' way too low
 I'm on my knees
 I'll pick myself up if you let me go
 Hey-ey I've been down too long at the lost and found
 Now I'm just gettin'
 Off the ground
