This Time Around

One time around, my soul says you were my familiar
One time around, my soul says you were my kin
And one time around, was another thing all together
'Cause I just don't know when the sparks go flying if you're foe or friend
One time around it was high noon when I came riding
One time around you found me just before the dawn
And any time around, when we meet to fast colliding
Oh the sky lights up when the sparks go flying, oh, and then they're gone
(chorus)
Last time around you kept me warm and we both went down in a blaze of glory
Next time around we might go up in smoke and sirens
This time around I see your face and I know your story
And I haven't got time this time around, no I haven't got the time
I haven't got time this time around, no, I haven't got the time.
One time around, won't you be my death row lifeline
Just a voice, just beyond a wall
One time around, won't you put my hand in mine, say that you
Just don't care, 'cuz it feels like flying every time we fall.
(chorus)
round and round and round we go
round and round and round
round and round and round we go
round and round and round and round and round.
One time come around, oh so that I can find you
Go two times around the block so I know your name
Next time around, won't you let the fire remind you
'Cuz I just don't know if the sparks aren't flying if I'll find my way.
(chorus)

I wanna be done now, I'm moving on
I'm letting go of all those dreams I was hanging on.
And when I'm free, oh I'm gonna run
'Cause I don't need to be anybody's baby.
Got more room in bed, no pesky fights,
None of this he said and then she said, no one's wrong and no one's right
And when I die with no one by my side
It's cause I didn't need to be anybody's baby.
Well it's been rough and it's been lonely
This can't be good for my health
I got a lot of love to give, yes I do
But I guess I'll keep it all to myself.
Never treats me wrong, but he never treats me right
He just strings me along 'cause he knows I like the ride
But if I knew just how to make him mine,
Then I wouldn't need to be anybody's baby.

Never Can

Sometimes I'm up and sometimes I'm down
And sometimes I go flying
Been where I been, go where I go,
And I know I'm so trying.
I know that I scare you so badly
I know that I wasn't your plan
But the woman I am loves you madly
Like the woman you want from me never can,
never can.
Like the woman you want from me never can.
Stay by your side, love you so dear
and I'll hold you so close at the end of the day
But if I should hide, and you're full of fear
I know you'll be gladder if I only went away.
I know that I scare you so badly
I know that I wasn't your plan
But the woman I am loves you madly
Like the woman you want from me never can,
never can.
Like the woman you want from me never can.

Walkin' Shoes

I got the perfect pair of walkin' shoes
Now I can walk away whenever I choose
That way I'm guaranteed not to lose
Myself again
I like the way he chose to choose
Never meet the man but walk around in his shoes
That way he's guaranteed not to lose
Himself again
I follow in footsteps every day,
I don't always mind it
I know I got plenty of time
I just gotta find it.
It's everyday life that's got me confused
All the ups and the downs the subtle little clues
That I wish I could find and hold onto and understand and maybe even use
A few of them.
I wanna go for a walk in Cranbrook
I wanna feel the familiar air
I wanna know where I come from
And some day I wanna go back there
I follow in footsteps every day
I don't always mind it
I know I got plenty of time
I just gotta find it.
