David Crosby - Boxes lyrics
Your rating:
[Verse 1] This time, I got nothing to say about it, I'm about as still as water could be, I won't fuck with anyone's arrangement, Let's open up these boxes and see. [Pre-Chorus 1] Last time, the kettle was boiling over, We made a mess of it, I made a mess, Sometimes, it's cloudy, and you drive yourself away, And away is always something less. [Chorus] All I'm saying, Nothing less than trying will do, All I know, Is that time will tell, time's a box, Time might show that there's love in these boxes. [Interlude] [Verse 2] I tried so often to summon my better angel, But they're over the horizon once again, I already tried to lock them all away, Up high where the blood runs thin. [Pre-Chorus 2] I stepped across the dreaded green light, And the self-inflicted wounds are slow to heal, I couldn't climb the forest, couldn't see the tree, I had to find my way by touch-and-feel. [Chorus] All I'm saying, Nothing less than trying will do, All I know, Is that time will tell, time's a box, Time might show that there's love. [Chorus] All I'm saying, Nothing less than trying will do, All I know, Is that time will tell, time's a box, Time might show that there's love in these boxes. [Outro] Love in these boxes, Love in these boxes.
