05) In The Way (Featuring Mark Kuntsi on Dual Harmonica Action)
Are you happy to hear from us?
Everyone runs dry sometimes,
but you take it so serious
when it's supposed to be fun time
and you push, and you pull out your hair.
Stumble over it, claiming it's just not there.
(chorus)
Comes a day
you forget all your lines
and it comes to you what to say.
You'll be okay.
Just don't think too much
cause it only gets in the way.
Off like a shot
trailing ribbons of madness behind you.
Inspiration comes 'round,
leaves a note, because it couldn't find you.
You've been staring too long at the sky,
and you're way too hung up
on “Why? Why? Why?”
(chorus)
(bridge)
Far away
is the pool where we play.
You pace 'round, blistered skin...
Why don't you just jump
right in?
It seems no-one's a skilled
to make a sow's ear from a silk purse,
and there's nothing so good
that it cannot be coaxed to turn out worse,
but now you've been shown the way home,
and you've only to leave well enough alone.
