I’m trying to work it all out, but I need more time
Maybe I need more money, maybe I need more fight
I can’t remember a birthday that wasn’t stuck in the heat
Maybe the earth got sick - its not all about me
I don’t want to get soft so I don’t cry no more
I gotta out-do my Dad, but I don’t know what for
I keep growing my legacy so I don’t have to die
Like anyone would notice one less star in the sky
When the last battery dies in the last clock you’ll be fine
Just think of me and I’ll think of you
You try to outrun the time, but it’s nice to stay behind
Just think of me and I’ll think of you
So what’s it gonna be now? Cancer?
How does God decide?
For about a decade thought it would be suicide
But the older I get I just wanna dance with me
Pull the invisible lasso around the world I’ll leave
Seeds in a sunflower- hey Fibonacci!
I need the map - kick us the car keys
Rain on a tin roof, warm body in the sheets
Childhood memories swimming ‘round me
I’m trying to work it all out and I don’t need more time
Dali, you darling - I think you got it right
When the last battery dies in the last clock you’ll be fine
Just think of me and I’ll think of you
You try to outrun the time, but it’s nice to stay behind
Just think of me and I’ll think of you
