lyrics

IT'S LIKE FALLING IN LOVE

I woke up one rainy morning
I'd been dreaming about being born
I looked in my mirror
and I met a stranger
filled with such fantastic fever
a disciple a believer
wanting to sing everyone
my brand new language

(chorus)
yeah but all I could tell them was
it's like falling in love
all I could tell them was
it's like falling in love
yes and words won't show ya


I had dreamed I was in a motel bed
I woke up chanting verses I'd read
Lily she sat down beside me
said, What's that you're saying?
I said, It's like a book or a movie
it's like skydiving or mainlining
except that it's the one true sun
casting all those shadows

(chorus)


riding down to see the ocean
shivering with my devotion
pale green morning chills
but still my blood was burning
all the songs so long unwritten
blast from radios in heaven
eternity's an underwater art museum

and all my friends grew cold because
they didn't know just what I was
I know how it tastes
I don't know how to feed them
birth and death and love and hatred
collard greens and buttered cornbread
everytime I swallow
it's a new religion

(chorus)
