I Will Not Return as a Tourist
Lately I've been feeling so strange, wake up dreaming of cheap love and aeroplanes
I could never take what I needed our moments of pleasure were fleeting
And lately I've been feeling so cruel the sweet plastic portrait painted of you
I could never draw out a meaning nothing more than a dishonest feeling
And you know it's not in me tonight no words no-nothing inside
And lately I've been feeling so restless,
I drove to a small town last weekend just to see where my head is, it's not here
All I found was a lounge with a jazz singer- blue velvet
But how high do we need to get befroe we see we're stuck on the ground?
I've been saving money for a grayhound ticket and I swear I'll be getting out soon you know, I love you.
But you know it's not in me tonight,
No words no-nothing in sight.
You know it's not in me tonight,
No words no-nothing in sight
And then I broke down, lost my keys but found my wallet on the nightstand, spent the night in someone elses bed I can't stand Spending nights away from home but that's all that I've been doing it's all that I've been doing
Then I woke up with the city on my mind I can't keep up with my mind it's always rushing to the next love
But when I return I swear it will not be as a tourist, will not be as a tourist-all right
But you know it's not in me tonight
No words no-nothing in sight
I could never take what I needed our moments of pleasure were fleeting
And lately I've been feeling so cruel the sweet plastic portrait painted of you
I could never draw out a meaning nothing more than a dishonest feeling
And you know it's not in me tonight no words no-nothing inside
And lately I've been feeling so restless,
I drove to a small town last weekend just to see where my head is, it's not here
All I found was a lounge with a jazz singer- blue velvet
But how high do we need to get befroe we see we're stuck on the ground?
I've been saving money for a grayhound ticket and I swear I'll be getting out soon you know, I love you.
But you know it's not in me tonight,
No words no-nothing in sight.
You know it's not in me tonight,
No words no-nothing in sight
And then I broke down, lost my keys but found my wallet on the nightstand, spent the night in someone elses bed I can't stand Spending nights away from home but that's all that I've been doing it's all that I've been doing
Then I woke up with the city on my mind I can't keep up with my mind it's always rushing to the next love
But when I return I swear it will not be as a tourist, will not be as a tourist-all right
But you know it's not in me tonight
No words no-nothing in sight
