Tattoo Of The Sun - Lyrics by Third Eye Blind


Lyrics
I believe everything you say       Cuz your not frightened       the way I've been so       So I follow you       Just in case you lose your way       So glad you let me stay around       The chain link fence you climbed       To make forbidden lakes our own       Your's and mine       And with ease of the sea gulls       We cut the engines and cruise high       In the summer sky       Now I could speak to everything       But there's no room for my voice       When sweet feed back is       Jumping through the hoop of your ear       Ring there goes the phone       And then you're off again       On what the caller brings you       So I went and trashed myself at the bar       Confused for nothing thinking you'd be there       I'm so embarrassed cuz it's you       Who comes to take care of me       Shambling home again with you to lead       And it's not the way I want to go       And I'm mad at you and I'm mad at me       Talking endlessly, not a kind word to say       Till your amber beads of wisdom come       And I want to write it down       Just the way you said it       So I could keep it always       I can't forget the smell       Of summer trees at midnight       Bending backwards to please the wind       You touch the tattoo of the sun       On a warm belly that once carried a baby for a while       Then let that crackled leather jacket round you fold       Red face saints monogrammed in gold       And in this beauty I would not go any further       Cuz I suddenly remembered       We can't live this way forever       Idle daylight       I've never caught you in a lie       Not until now       I feel somehow       The passing of these days gone by       What will you do when the feeling       That you have is through       I need to know       Cuz I'll never stop hanging on to you       And it's times like this that I dread       When there's everything to say       And nothing left       To be said       And it makes me sad
