Thinkin' Ahead
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
"A storm is coming' Frank says
A storm that will swallow the children
And I will deliver them from the kingdom of pain
I'll deliver the children back to their doorsteps
I'll send the monsters back to the underground
I'll send them back to a place where no one else can see them
Except from me"
A tornado flew around my room before you came
Excuse the mess it made, it usually doesn't rain
In Southern California, much like Arizona
My eyes don't shed tears but boy they bawl
When I'm thinkin' 'bout you
Oh, no, no, no
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
You know, know, know
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
Do you think about me still?
Do ya, do ya?
Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever
Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever
No, I don't like you, I just thought you were cool enough to kick it
Got a beach house I could sell you in Idaho
Since you think I don't love you, I just thought you were cute
That's why I kissed you
Got a fighter jet, I don't get fly it, though I'm lyin' down
Thinkin' 'bout you
Oh, no, no, no
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
You know, know, know
I've been thinkin' 'bout you
Do you think about me still?
Do ya, do ya?
Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever
Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever
Yes, of course I remember, how could I forget? How you feel?
And though you were my first time a new feel
It won't ever get old, not in my soul, not in my spirit keep it alive
We'll go down this road 'til it turns from color to black and white
Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever
Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever
