Lyrics
Nothing At All
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.
Lord knows we've become scientific
It's nothing special at all
Sometimes ev'rything gets big
And nothing is small
We can live here ev'ryday
We can be here whenever we play
And the knife is near at hand
I cut myself to see who I am
Reach inside but I still can't touch
the policeman inside
Baby Jesus, Holy Moses!
He can stop on a dime
I guess there's just too many supposes
For me to put out that fire
Skin so soft...feels so...light
Guess I'll stay home tonight
From the Rockies to the Rio Grande
A big ol' shadow falls across the land
Had some money, but it's not enough
to keep me in line
We made love in a shower of stars
I had a vision in my backyard
Saw a car drive across the sky
Behind the wheel look there! it's you and I
Looks like we're gonna get outa ourselves tonight
Looks like
What do you suppose?
Was it nothing at all?
What do you suppose?
Was it nothing at all?
Those good times, good times, good times we had
Were they nothing at all?
Did I sleep a little too late?
Or am I awake?
Shake your body till the fear is gone
Like it was nothing at all
It's so easy, so easy, so easy
Hey it's nothing at all
So easy, so easy, so easy
Hey it's nothing at all
