| back to lyrics home Lyrics from "How Do I Know You" Over Now Don't pack your bags-you'll find new rags, and you'll always have a seat for free No time to wait-you're already late for your date with destiny It's all over now You don't have to cry-don't even try, all your friends will see you again All roads are seen-all lights are green, and you never have to stop again It's all over now No fuss, no fight, nothing but light You landed on go-nobody says no, and you move around the board with ease Like a leaf or a feather-no rope or tether, adn you ride around the world with the breeze It's all over now Star What would you do if I told you you've been running in the wrong race What would you do if I told you you've been living a lie What would you do if I told you you're just another face What would you do if I told you you're just a passerby-Are you a star What would you do if I told you nobody needs your voice too loud What would you do if I told you nobody needs you around What would you do if I told you you'll never fly and land on a cloud What would you do if I told you you'll never leave the ground-Are you a star Are you a star in your own mind-the one you wanted to be Are you a star disappearing-one we'll never see Are you a star in the making-one that just can't resign Are you a star in the making-just about to shine You're just about to shine Run, Rerun Instrumental How Do I Know You? How do I know you-did we share a handshake and a grin How do I know you-did those party favors do me in Did I talk to you or was it your evil twin How do I know you-did you take me by the hand How do I know you-did we roll around in the sand Did you only want to do me 'cause I'm playing in the band How do I know you-did you see me on the floor How do I know you-did we meet in Baltimore Did we hang out in the basement-when you said stop did I say more When I was way out on the island did you row the boat ashore Do I give you a second glance or do I let you walk out door Eugenius Instrumental Talk the Talk I came to you for a favor-I listened to the words that you spoke You gave me what I wanted to hear but now I treat your words like a joke-don't lead me on If you're gonna talk the talk better walk the walk-you don't have to shout it If you're gonna flash the flash you better pay the cash-cause now I start to doubt it More lines let me along "gotta give it some time" "see it though" I gave you what you wanted but all I got was a different window with the same old view-don't lead me on If you're gonna talk the Talk better walk the walk-you don't have to shout it If you're gonna flash the flash you better pay the cash-cause now I start to doubt it don't care what you have to say-I just came to hear you play Yes I have an obsession-on your words I still chew You gave to me a promise and now I wait for it to come true-don't lead me on-are you just a con? If you're gonna talk the talk better walk the walk-you don't have to shout it If you're gonna flash the flash you better pay the cash-cause now I start to doubt it OBX Instrumental Down The first time I saw you you were shuffling your feet The first time I saw you you must have felt so obsolete No cross on your back but I swear it was there-once you were lost now you're found You know where you are-does anybody else? You know where you are and you'll never come down The last time I saw you you were spinning around The last time I saw you you weren't even on the ground No wings on your back but I swear you were in the air-once you were lost now you're found You know where you are-does anybody else? You know where you are and you'll never come down Everyday I open my eyes-I see what time it is-I hear music on the radio I draw back the shades-I soak in the morning light-it's so good to see someone else has risen with me Everyday is a new day-there's not much more to be said Everyday is a new day-you wake up alive or you're dead I open my eyes-I see my baby beside me-I run my fingers through her hair I thank God that she is there Then I put on my work clothes-it's time to bring home some bread-I kis my baby godbye, she kisses me back Everyday is a new day-there's not much more to be said Everyday is a new day-you wake up alive or you're dead I open my eyes-I see what is on my wall-words of wisdom I once gave to myself Nothing rings more true than what I am saying to you-who would have thought that we would all be here tonight? Everyday is a new day-there's not much more to be said Everyday is a new day-you wake up alive or you're dead |
