Intro:
  
  
  
        


                                     
Talked out and now I'm feeling crowded

                                          
All the errands in the world won't save us now

                                   
Rained in and I won't come unclouded


There's a stillness in the air

             
I pray for sound


                
We're too smart to watch TV

                 
We're too dumb to make believe

                      
this is all we want from life

                  
And I'm too dumb to talk to you

                  
You're so quick to listen to me

                         
I'm saying nothing you don't know
Nothing you don't know

  
     
    
                                 
Walked out and I won't be rerouted

                                     
If I don't go outside today, I never will

                         
Too old not to get excited


About rain and roads, Egyptian ruins

           
our first kiss.

                
We're too smart to watch TV

                 
We're too dumb to make believe

                      
this is all we want from life

                  
And I'm too dumb to talk to you

                  
You're so quick to listen to me

                         
I'm saying nothing you don't know


                          
I love you more than I ever loved
                            
Anyone before, or anyone to come

                                         
Someone said your name, I thought of you alone

               
I was just the same, twenty blocks away

  
     

                                          
Blew twelve and kissed the thirteenth finger

                                           
"Rabbit, rabbit," on the first. I hold my breath

                                    
Did tricks I hoped you wouldn't notice

 
A superstitious hyper realist

             
I'll make you mine



                
We're too smart to watch TV

                 
We're too dumb to make believe

                      
this is all we want from life

                  
And I'm too dumb to talk to you

                  
You're so quick to listen to me

                         
I'm saying nothing you don't know


                          
I love you more than I ever loved
                            
Anyone before, or anyone to come

                                         
Someone said your name, I thought of you alone

                                      ~~~
I was just the same, twenty blocks away
