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 |
