COUNTING CROWS - Time and Time Again lyrics

rate me

I wanted so badly somebody other than me

Staring back at me. But you were gone, gone, gone.

I wanted to see you walking backwards

To get the sensation of you coming home.

I wanted to see you walking away from me

Without the sensation of you leaving me alone.

CHORUS:

Time and time again.

Time and time again.

Time and time again.

I can't please myself.

I wanted the ocean to cover over me.

I wanna sink slowly without getting wet.

Maybe someday I won't be so lonely

And I'll walk on water, heh, every chance I get.

(CHORUS)

So when are you coming home, sweet angel?

You leaving me alone? All alone?

Well if I'm drowning darling, you'll come down this way on your own.

I wish I was travelin' on a freeway

Beneath this graveyard western sky.

I'm gonna set fire to this city

And out in the desert, yeah, we're gonna ride.

CHORUS:

Time and time again.

Time and time again.

Time and time and time again.

I can't please myself.

Ohhhh yeah.

I can't please myself and I, I can't please nobody else and...

Time again.

Time and time again.

Time and time and time and time again.

I can't please myself.

No no no no...
