I wanted to write a song called 'Cosmic'  I wanted to get a view of the earth  I wanted to be a lonesome cowboy  I wanted to love you till it hurt    I wanted the right to misbehave  To say she ain't my crave    I put these things aside for years  'Til laughter took the place of tears  It's like I was asleep yet now I'm here  I'm here    I wanted to take your place just sometimes  To know the things you know and why you did the things you do  To say 'no' one time and believe it  Oh I wanted so much but only needed you    Wasn't it just my choice to make?  The bed in which I lay    I put these things aside for years  'Til laughter took the place of tears  It's like I was asleep yet now I'm here  I'm here    I wanted to be able to talk without the interruption  I wanted to sing exotic words  I wanted to find a way to put the end to all of my destruction  I wanted to re-know what I was worth    But wasn't it just my choice to make?  The bed in which I lay    I put these things aside for years  'Til laughter took the place of tears  It's like I was asleep yet now I'm here  I'm here  I'm here (it's cosmic)
