Counting Crows - This Desert Life

Amy Hit The Atmosphere

Ready, three, four

If I could make it rain today
And wash away this sunny day
Down to the gutter, I would
Just to get a change of pace
Things are getting worse
But I feel a lot better
And that's all that really matters to me

Amy hit the atmosphere
Caught herself a rocket ride
Out of this gutter and
She's never coming back, I fear
But any time it rains
She just feels a lot better
And that's all that really matters to me

We've waited so long
For someone to take us back home
It just takes so long
And meanwhile the days go drifting away
And some of us sink like a stone
Waiting for mothers to come

There has to be a change, I'm sure
Today was just a day fading into another
And that can't be what a life is for
The only thing she said was she feels a lot better
And that's all that really matters to me

We've waited so long
For someone to take us back home
It just takes so long
And meanwhile the days go drifting away
And some of us sink like a stone
Waiting for mothers to come

I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know
All I really know is, I want to know
And all I really know is I don't want to know
All I really know is, I want to know
And all I really know is I don't want to know
All I really know is, I want to know
And all I really know is I don't want to know
All I really know is, I want to know
And all I really know is I don't want to know
All I really know is, I want to know
And all I really know is I don't want to know
All I really know is, I want to know
And all I really know is I don't want to know
