tonight you\'ve caught your breath you\'ve lost your american spirit if only i could catch my death yeah jus\' give me long enough to fear it
her talk ain\'t like the other girls she takes my livin\' at a glance we hear the locust\'s rasp back and forth an\' through the thoughts the past does dance
do i waste my time yeah well you know it an\' as i stroll through the room see my features show it
feel the hand on my shoulder yeah it calls me to dwell take a breath hard an\' clear yeah like a hammer on a church bell
