Say when you called me that night

to tell me that things

they weren't goin' alright with your boyfriend

was it me or did you just need somebody to talk to

Say is it you or the fact that I can't be near you

that keeps you in the front of my mind

when your breath is the last thing that you say

when your voice goes away 

and a breath is the last thing that you say


But the warmth of your lips on my fingertips won't go away

when I drop my head in my hands and play

the memory of that might in L.A.

again and again and again

because I can't think straight and I can't sleep late

the few times we shared I try to recreate

I know this is wrong better stop this talk

cause grass can grow up through a crack in the sidewalk

and what I see when I look in your eyes

grass that's truly greenest sprouting inside

I wasn't even looking when I realized

that you had the vibe that was my fertilizer

thought love in this world was dead and buried and gone

how could I be so cynical when I was so young

you hit me in the chest like and 808 boom

I found love is the shit that makes life bloom!


(chorus)


Love is the shit that makes life bloom

and you never know when you might step in it!

love is the shit that makes life bloom

and you never know when you might...


But fate is like a pigeon that follows me around

sometimes he flies ahead and he brings me what he found

then he'll drop it on my head leave me numb

from the brain down

that's the way it was when I walked upon your ground


The irrepressible and impermissable

are the two things that have made my life miserable

'cause spirits don't leave if you don't talk about 'em

and memories come back when you don't think aabout 'em

I wish I had an ocean of some magic potion

I'd trade all this emotion for a few moments of motion

I've never felt this way some things can't be rehearsed

now I'm grindin' up my gearbox tryin' to find reverse

because...


(chorus)


(bridge)

But I want to keep on walkin'

Right through

And let this fellin' rock me

ooh-oooh!

(repeat)

"ya know fallin' in love is like easing into a hot tub.

it feels good on your feet but by the time you

get to your mid section you know your either

gonna get all the way in or all the way out!"


But music brings me comfort in this grieving hour

the Sade tape tells me it's all over for now

I listen read hard but don't dare play it loud

'cause I don't wanna think what you might be doin' now

sometimes it feels like a bad initiation but you

woke my hear from a long hibernation

you were worth every risk so I gave my hear room

and now I'm deep in the doo-doo

that makes life bloom

because...


(chorus)


(bridge)

See the flowers bloomin' in the springtime

see the bees zoomin' in the sunshine

(repeat)
