Counting Crows - Round Here Lyrics

Send "Round Here" ringtone to your cell

Step out the front door like a ghost

Into the fog where no one notices

The contrast of white on white.

And in between the moon and you

The angels get a better view

Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.

I walk in the air between the rain

Through myself and back again

Where?

Maria says she's dying

Through the door I hear her crying

Why?

Round here we always stand up straight

Round here something radiates

Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand

She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis

And she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land

Just like she's walking on a wire

In the circus

She parks her car outside of my house

And Takes her clothes off

Says she's close to understanding Jesus

She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood

She has trouble acting normal

Well I have trouble acting normal

But Round here we're carving out our names

Round here we all look the same

Round here we talk just like lions

But we sacrifice just like lambs

Round here

Look she's she's slipping through my hands

Sleeping children better run like the wind

Out out out out

Out of the lightning dream

Mama's little baby better get herself in

Out of the lightning

She says "it's only in my head"

She says "Shhhhh I know I know it's only in my head"

But the girl on the car in the parking lot

Says "Man you should try to take a shot

Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"

Then she looks up at the building

Says "I'm thinking of jumping"

She says "I'm sick and tired of life"

Everybody's tired of something

Round here she's always on my mind

Round here hey man I got a lot of time

Round here we're never sent to bed early

And nobody makes us wait

Round here we stay up very very very very late

I can't see nothing... nothing round here

Would you catch if I was falling

Would you kiss me if I was leaving

Would you hold me cause I'm lonely without you

I said I'm under the gun around here

I'm lonely lonely lonely without you

And I can't see nothing

Nothing round here
