John Mark Mcmillan - Chemicals lyrics

A room sometimes is a body With the loneliest view And the porch lights grow dim With every on-setting hour Where the stars seem so finite to you But love it ain't like the chemicals babe 'Cause the chemicals don't hang around While everybody's drilling for a fountain of youth Losing years on the way down A melody can be exhausted babe Short of friend and fame 'Cause the birds they don't sing In the winter short of spring And, even then, they only sing in the day But love, it ain't like a melody babe 'Cause the birds don't hang around Well, everybody's drilling for a fountain of youth But sometimes in these fountains they drown Sometimes in these fountains they drown But I want to love you When the blood of my veins Don't know how to call out your name Yeah I want to love you When the birds don't hang around But love it ain't like the chemicals babe 'Cause the chemicals don't hang around While everybody's drilling for a fountain of youth But sometimes in these fountains they drown
