I've been living in a wishing well
Since circumstances stopped wishing me well
Waiting on the day when you'll turn back my way
And we can turn back the time
Every day that the rooster crows
Every night that the wind blows
I confess I like to redirect
My thoughts from where they want to go
Now I'm moving through the stages of a fine afternoon
But I'm staring down an evening with nothing much to do
Oh, and that's when I'm in danger
That's when I'm in danger
That's when I'm in danger thinking of you
Make coffee, check the weather
Then check the weather back home
I miss everyone, but I'm not coming back
Just wanna know when it snows
Oh, I wish I could see me from up above
Like a flying kite
Try as I may I can not dispel
Suspicions that you might've been right
That I'm always searching for the thing that's right under my nose
That I'm looking for a rainbow while I'm pissing in a pot of gold
Oh, and that's when I'm in danger
That's when I'm in danger
That's when I'm in danger of missing you
ย
Oh, California's nice but it's true that it kills
If the earthquakes don't get you, the landlords will
They gave amnesty for hippies long ago, but is there mercy here still?
I sat down to write a letter
That began with some crazy dream I had
I was playing piano at the hotel Saint Regis
In a wedding band with your dad
And then I said I love you in that classic kind of way that just doesn't die
It just rolls on and on, creeping towards the end of time
Oh, and that's what feels in danger
That's what feels in danger
That's what feels in danger of being true
