What If We Don't Get What We Want
(Jim Hughes)
We were sitting at the head of a car
And her lips were dry and parched
And we turned to each other
We were listening to "Suspicious Minds"
CHORUS
And we're cracking codes and combinations
And we're thinking
What if we don't get what we want
SWell, you kick away your golden shoes
Counting what you can afford to lose
And I can't treat you casually
We are not fond of misery
CHORUS
On the frozen lake of memory
You were asking me about my dream
And we're turning to each other
And we are so primitive
CHORUS
The Wreck Of The Hesperus
There's a feeling deep within me
I can't describe
Like drifting carelessly
It's a boundless kind of freedom
That's in this world
I step in every night
Some strange blend of fear
and curiosity
Is travelling with me
I often can't recall
Where I've been the night before
This is like a big illusion
So real to us
(that you take for real)
it's getting hard to leave
there are figures, there are stories
so wonderous
Sometimes I don't know
Have I seen the light?
Or have I just lost my way
Some strange blend of fear
and c
I can't describe
Like drifting carelessly
It's a boundless kind of freedom
That's in this world
I step in every night
Some strange blend of fear
and curiosity
Is travelling with me
I often can't recall
Where I've been the night before
This is like a big illusion
So real to us
(that you take for real)
it's getting hard to leave
there are figures, there are stories
so wonderous
Sometimes I don't know
Have I seen the light?
Or have I just lost my way
Some strange blend of fear
