More You Understand
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 thousand years ago today
We as two would be the same
I'd fall for you
Customized relationships
Do you feel the same about
Your flirt with love
And your certainty
The CIA wouldn't bother you
Tut they would always know the truth
They'd never know who came
And I would fall a thousand miles
And you would fall fast to denial
[chorus]
The more you are
The more you need
The more you'll understand
The more you'll understand
The more you know
The more you feel
The more you'll understand, yeah yeah
The sentiments are screaming out
The felony of who's left out
It's not you
It's you for me, me for you
We can always follow through
This makeshift date
But why give up your love
The way it goes
Call her name
Do you ever feel the same
And do you know who came
A year ago, a thousand miles
How far away we were to smile
Too far gone to save
[chorus]
The CIA is after you
What the hell is there to do but run
We made
A promise to eternity
Tucked away for you to see
On you're way you'll be
Baffled by relationships
Psyched up for the major lift
What you want to say
You're caught to blame
They erased your name
We will always be the same
The same
