Lyrics Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

Please!

Once upon a time I was the hurricane boy

There was no eye in me for you to hide

Head low don't show oceans in my eyes

As the waves clap goodbye to sorrow

Daddy's on the mountain yelling at the bloody sky

Mama's in the mirror acting out another life

Children in the schoolyard singing 'everybody dies'

And I am on the corner with the sentimental eye

I am on the corner singing sentimental lies

Hopped up on a gypsy train with tracks that you can hide

That way no storm could follow our tomorrows

But shackled to a suitcase full of automatic thunder

CLAP!

All hail to death's boy-wonder

JJ's in the kitchen talking bout the end of times

Mo's throwing Kerouac to Catcher In The Rye

Temperamental yogis baking merryweather pie

And I am on the corner with the sentimental eye

I am on the corner singing sentimental lies

Sometimes said it's sun time

Let it sunshine on my mind

All the same its conscience waiting

Cross the line

Last night I dreamed myself upon a golden glade

The clouds passed in and out of my reflection

'til everyone I've known held my hands 'til they were clay

And the storm finally bled from my complexion

Now Jade's on the mountain singing 'We will never die'

The band is in the rainbow playing 'love for you and I'

Heath is riding shotgun aiming at the paper sky

And I am only 'I am' now I've opened up my eyes

I am only 'I am' that I've opened up my eyes

Sometimes said its sun time

Let it sunshine on my mind

Healing I need healing

A good feeling I can shine

Feel it like you can see it

Like you can dream it in your mind

Sunny Hallelujah coming to ya

Rain or shine

All the same its conscience waiting

Cross the line

All the same its conscience waiting
