serendipity...

It’s sure as the floor ‘neath my toes and somehow not surprised

That I was superimposed somehow in this life

And if my friends and my foes would just drop me a line, it’d be nice

You see love is a drink that goes straight to my head

And time is a lover and I’m caught in her stare

And the sentiment there follows me straight to my bed through the night

I’ve got my life in a suitcase and ready to run, run, run away

I got no time ‘cause I’m always trying to run, run, run away

‘Cause everyday when it feels like it’s only a game

I’ve got my life in a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase

What could be an anchor here, with a storm on the rise

When you never meant to see so clear when smoke gets in your eyes

And the man in the moon never makes his replies understood

I’ve got my life in a suitcase and ready to run, run, run away

I got no time ‘cause I’m always trying to run, run, run away

‘Cause everyday when it feels like it’s only a game

I’ve got my life in a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase

A suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase

A suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase

For a moment I was one man and the world made sense

And for a moment here this storm made no consequence
I’ve got my life in a suitcase and ready to run, run, run away

I got no time ‘cause I’m always trying to run, run, run away

Cause everyday when it feels like it’s only a game

I’ve got my life in a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase

You’d think that people would have had enough of silly love songs.
But I look around me and I see it isn’t so.
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs.
And what’s wrong with that?
I’d like to know, cause here I go again…

I wanna stay with you
But I can’t
Because I gotta go to work
I wanna stay with you
But I can’t
Because I gotta go to work

It’s overwhelming how much I hate everything
It’s overwhelming how much I hate everything
But you

Yeah I love you
Yes I love you
Yeah I love you
Yes I love you

I wanna stay with you
But I can’t
Because I gotta go to work
I wanna stay with you
But I can’t
Because I gotta go to work

It’s overwhelming how much I hate everything
It’s overwhelming how much I hate everything
But you

Yeah I love you
Yes I love you
Yeah I love you
Yes I love you

It’s true
I love you
I do

I tremble
They’re gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They’re gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Help I’m alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse the pace is on a runaway train
Help I’m alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If we’re still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going
I get whatever I need
While my blood’s still flowing
And my heart’s still
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Help I’m alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse the pace is on a runaway train
Help I’m alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If we’re still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going
I get whatever I need
While my blood’s still flowing
And my heart’s still
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Help I’m alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer

You and me forever
We belong together
And we’ll always endeavor
Throughout any type of weather

You want everything to be just like
The stories that you read but never write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
Or you’ll get burned

You wrote our names down on the sidewalk
The rain came and washed ‘em off
So we should write ‘em again on wet cement
So maybe people a long time from now will know what we meant

You want every morning to be just like
The stories that you read but never write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
My only concern

I’m adding something new to the mixture
So there’s a different hue to your picture
A different ending to this fairytale
When the sunset into which we sail

You want everything to be just like
The stories that you read but you can’t write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
Or you’ll get burned
