[Verse 1] I was burned in the heat of the moment Though it couldn't been the heat of the day When I learned how my time had been wasted Tear fell as I turned away Now I've got friends who will give me their shoulder Event I should happen to fall Time and his bride growing older I've got friends who will give me f** all [Hook] Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala, my baby Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala [Verse 2] Corner of Bleeker and nowhere In the land of not quite day A shiver runs down my backbone Face in the mirror turns grey So looked round to hitch up the reindeer Searching hard trying to brighten the day I turned around to look for the snowman To my surprise he'd melted away [Hook] Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala, my baby Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala [Verse 3] As the moon and the stars call the order Inside my tides dance the ebb and sway The sun in my soul's sinking lower While the hope in my hands turns to clay I don't ask that my field's full of clover I don't moan at opportunity's door And if you ask my advice, take it slower
Then your story'd be your finest reward [Hook] Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala, my baby Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala, now do it [Bridge] Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh [Verse 4] Lost on the path to attainment Search in the eyes of the wise When I bled from the heart of the matter I started bleeding without a disguise Now everything's fine under heaven Now and then you've got to take time to pause When you're down on the ground, don't be messing around Or you'll land in a boat without oars [Hook] Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala, my baby Lalalalalalalala, yeah Lalalalalalalala [Outro] Hey babe, hey babe, hey babe I lost my way Hey babe, hey babe [?] Hey babe, hey babe I don't know where I'm going to find it Hey babe, hey babe Do you want to know Do you really, really, want to help me, yeah? Let me tell you now, babe Let me tell you That it feels so good that it must be right Now my babe Let me tell you That it feels so good that it must be right Now my babe Let me tell you That it feels so, feels so, feels so good
