The thrill here is quicker than you'd think   The way some jet-lagged bar kept pouring the wine   From over their heads then sit back down again   Four times is once too much for luck   That's how many times the clock struck   I wandered home, saying your name      The arches here were built 'cause they don't fall   The 'catedrals' to make you feel small   You might find your small soul   Leave the preaching to the president   The crowd cheers, his eyes get wet   I'm full as it is, I'm full as it is   So don't feed me more      You'll be having my head, big as a birthday   'Cause I left all my doubts on the airplane   I didn't know, I didn't know I'm not in control   I didn't know, I'm not invincible      And maybe some things are better left unsaid   But if you wanted to test that out   Well, yeah, I guess, you couldn't'a said   But there were nights in bars that I recall   Your breath was courage laced with alcohol   You leaned in, you said,   "Make music with the chatter in here,   And whisper all the notes in my ears."   I didn't know, I didn't know the weight of my tongue   I didn't know, I didn't know what I'd done      The lights here are softer than you'd think   The dim lit peacocks in the trees,   They're hiding their eyes and their beauty, like me   But if my eyes were on my back   I know what I'd be looking at   Through every shade of brown and green   I didn't know, I didn't know it was nothing new   I didn't know, I didn't know it was you
