|
over in my mind |
|
|
|
When
I was a kid I travelled the rooftops of my town |
|
Trying
to raise up above a family |
|
I
look at those houses when I'm standing on the ground |
|
Over
impressed with gravity |
|
|
|
Me
and Joe H- we rode 'em tall like sailing ships |
|
Two
Magellan's heading on out to the sea |
|
And
up on those eaves, just about anything you'd believe |
|
You
could get your heart to see |
|
|
|
CHORUS: |
|
I
roll it over in my mind I roll it over in my mind |
|
I
roll it over in my mind |
|
Five
hundred miles and a day behind |
|
Tomorrow
that sun is gonna shine |
|
I
roll it over in my mind |
|
|
|
We
sailed Indiana just like it was the Bering Sea |
|
Riding
on those -- waves of green |
|
And
up on that roof, well you didn't need no proof |
|
There
was gonna come driving rain |
|
So
batton down the hatches yes and landlock all their hearts |
|
Up
on the rooftops we'll be free |
|
to
sail our ships out past the cornfields and -- strips(?) |
|
carried
away by the deep blue sea |
|
|
|
REPEAT
CHORUS |
|
|
|
What
I was thinking, yeah, somewhere in my brain |
|
Me
and Joe H -- might have had it right |
|
Just
high enough to see what we did not wanna be |
|
I
think I'm gonna ride the roof tonight |
|
|
|
REPEAT
CHORUS |
