Tom P Buckley

Lyrics

[Intro]
[strummed acoustic guitar in G major]
[Verse 1]
[raspy male vocals enter]
Get off the plane
Remember some things
Remember the pain
Tore me down inside
Now I know
What it's like to fly
Everything's gone wrong
Don't be shy
Don't you leave your love
[Chorus]
Now I know I've got the picture of you
Now I know I've got the memory of you
There you were
Tall as anyone
Blonde hair
Smile that could block the sun
How you doing?
Got so sharp but you was
[Bridge]
[vocal intensity increases]
Oh my, oh my
As long as I get to see your smile
I can stay, I can stay
For a long time, all the way
All the way
[vocal ad-libs]
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Candy cane
Out the window
I don't know why some memories do fade
There I am
Oh
There goes another one
Don't be tired, don't be frayed
Don't you lose what's in your tank
Don't you steal what you got left
[Outro]
I'll be there
At crimson
Open the door and I'll fly
I'll be there
At crimson
Open the door and I'll fly
Open the door and I'll fly
Fly, fly
I don't have to try
Fly, fly
I don't have to try now
Fly
I don't have to try
[acoustic guitar fades out]
