Lyrics

[Intro]
[rhythmic acoustic guitar strumming with palm muting]
[Verse 1]
[gritty male vocals]
Light and shade my sight on a gloomy night in June
Everyone felt the clouds stole the room
It was desperate weather, people were drying all their sheets
I was lost in someone's heat in my mind
(Heat in my mind)
[Chorus]
[strumming becomes more open and resonant]
Now I feel so high
I feel so high
I feel so high
I feel so high
[strumming becomes more open and resonant]
Now I feel so high
I feel so high
I feel so high
I feel so high
[Verse 2]
[palm-muted strumming returns]
Everyone with crystals, little chandeliers
Put up in the car one year
Some holes in their minds and holes in them
Half of them are friends, half of them are friends, half of them
[Bridge]
[vocal intensity increases, belting]
Come on now, I love you, you love me, let's get married
Run on out to the country, disappear
Let's go buy a towback for our son and daughter
Or both, it doesn't matter
(Oh)
[Verse 3]
[softer strumming]
I cried one night at the thought of a loved one's life
But I helped them and oh, I know it's nothing I could do in the end
(Oh)
[Outro]
[crescendo in guitar strumming]
Be up and we'll go out and get married
Run on out
