[Third Eye Blind - Tattoo of the sun - 2006 remastered lyrics]
We cruise high in the summer sky
I believe everything you say 'cause you're
Not frightened the way I've been so
So I follow you just in
Case you lose your way
So glad you let me stay around
The chain link fence you climbed to make
Forbidden lakes our own, yours and mine
And with ease of the sea gulls
We cut the engines
And we cruise high in the summer sky, baby
Now, I could speak to everything
But there's no room for my
Voice when sweet feedback
Is jumpin' through the hoop of your earring
There goes the phone and
Then you're off again
On what the caller brings you
So, I went and trashed myself at the bar
Confused for nothin', thinkin' you'd be there
I'm so embarrassed 'cause it's
You who comes to take care of me
Shamblin' home again with you to lead
And it's not the way I wanna go
And I'm mad at you and I'm mad at me
Talkin' endlessly, not a kind word to say
Till your amber beads of wisdom come
And I want to write 'em down
Just the way you said it, oh no
So I could keep it always, always
I can't forget the smell of
Summer trees at midnight
Bendin' backwards to please, the wind
You touch the tattoo of the
Sun on a warm belly
That once carried a baby for a while
Then let that crackled leather
Jacket 'round you fold
Red face saints monogrammed in
Gold and in this beauty, I would not go any
Further 'cause I suddenly
Remembered, we can't live this way forever
Idle daylight, oh
I've never caught you in a lie
Not until now, I feel somehow
I felt the passin' of these days goin' by
What will you do when the feeling
That you have is through?
I need to know 'cause I'll never
Stop hangin' on to you
And it's times like this that I
Dread when there's everything to say
And nothing left to be said
To be said and it makes me sad
I believe everything you say 'cause you're
Not frightened the way I've been so
So I follow you just in
Case you lose your way
So glad you let me stay around
The chain link fence you climbed to make
Forbidden lakes our own, yours and mine
And with ease of the sea gulls
We cut the engines
And we cruise high in the summer sky, baby
Now, I could speak to everything
But there's no room for my
Voice when sweet feedback
Is jumpin' through the hoop of your earring
There goes the phone and
Then you're off again
On what the caller brings you
So, I went and trashed myself at the bar
Confused for nothin', thinkin' you'd be there
I'm so embarrassed 'cause it's
You who comes to take care of me
Shamblin' home again with you to lead
And it's not the way I wanna go
And I'm mad at you and I'm mad at me
Talkin' endlessly, not a kind word to say
Till your amber beads of wisdom come
And I want to write 'em down
Just the way you said it, oh no
So I could keep it always, always
