Lyrics
Down From You
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.
you've gotta pull so many strings
and tie yourself in knots to handle
anything
if anything is gonna fly
with 2 hands 2 legs
arms
and ears
and eyes
if you relax and try to breathe
you may unwind your mind enough
to finally see
the road to freedom that you need
to keep from holding back my destiny
get me down from you
pull me out i'm overcome
i am tired of being
dumb
and
numb
when loving love is loving dreams
the dream will last as long as you¹re asleep
but when that bell begins to ring
i face the day
i shake the tree
shake the tree
shake the tree
SHAKE THE TREE
when loving love is loving dreams
the dream will last as long as long as you're asleep
but when that bell begins to ring
i face the day
i face the day
