lirik lagu dar williams – when it gets that way
when i want to go somewhere, i don’t ask forgiveness
i just go where i like, and he knows that.
i walk alone into any party, i’m alone tonight
in that high-heeled ego old hat.
oh blue night, laughter at the bell toll.
people move like streaks of charcoal.
someone found a prince in the punchbowl.
but high times fizzle out in a change of heart,
and we know things fall apart.
the morning’s off to a bad start.
it’s raining. have you had nights like this?
i run miles to his place, wake him up to look at his face.
i feel astray, and i love it when it gets that way.
the child is so young, they say that child is truly free
and with a mind of perpetual invention.
so why is it now i’m a grown-up, all grown up
and yet now i fly through the ceilings of convention?
oh new friend, borne out of a mind-cloud.
make believe and yet i laugh aloud.
i’ve cried when you have stood ground.
but sometimes playtimes are a ghost i’ve faced,
in that room that i’ve erased.
the air is empty and druglaced.
i am completely gone. are you still with me, then?
with my head so big and awfully,
take my hand and lead me softly,
and then you stay, and i love it when it gets that way.
and when i was crazy maybe i wanted, i wanted, i wanted to be steady as an iceberg,
and with nowhere fast a-going.
now, now i can handle the danger zone with hailstones all a-flying,
and the crazy winds a-blowing.
these days i haven’t been smoking my lungs brown,
have that itch to turn my life around,
maybe move on to a new town.
cause good friends lifted me out of an early tomb.,
pulled my life out from it’s doom,
like sun into a big room
and where my roots have grown.
i really can’t let go
through the woods and through the fields climb
up the mountain into nighttime,
into the day, and i love it when it gets that way.
