Sympathetic Vibrations
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.
Please stay in your seat until the captain turns off the seatbelt sign
red eye flight, but I never fell asleep last night
and everything's new and everything glows here brighter than TV
But I can taste it, I can touch it, I can feel my heart go
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
My heart goes oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
People stream around me through the steaming streets and flashing lights
we are the blood inside the veins that pump this city full of life
I get so mesmerized that I forget to breathe sometimes
we move in sync, we spin around, we step in time
our feet go oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
our feet go oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
The dissonance sounds right
the note they said was wrong ---
the one they told me never would belong
and I'm finally tuned into a sympathetic song
the city resonates; we hum along.
I met a man who makes balloons turn into animals
he dates a girl who plays the saxaphone between her toes
and everyone's new and everyone glows with something I have never seen
it's like a secret they are telling me that makes my heart go
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
my heart goes oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
my heart goes oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
