I’m in love with people I’ll probably never meet
And places I may never get to see
And I wish I could make the sound of joy
But I’ve never had the means to try
I’ll put my left foot forward
And kick down these green walls
To erect yellow ones where they stood
I’m only hoping they’ll bring around the sun
Along with some brighter nights.
I can’t wish on one of the million stars
REM drive-in sound doesn’t play in my car
‘Cause sleep never made friends with me
This pillow and my head won’t make loove
…-ly babies.
I can’t tell you if color makes a difference
But I’ll take a chance
Dip my hands into liquid sunshine
And make our biggest star all mine
I wonder if canaries will eat these leaves
…
