I saw the city
From the window of an airplane
(I got bummed and I thought
There's nothing except for a lot)
I was too anxious
To get anything accomplished
(My mind floated around
While I tried pulling it down)
But I never can
I have so many things
That I can't find a place for
(My head got overrun and
These things are no more fun)
I tried to shake it
But it shook me down completely
(There's no telling right now
But I tried spelling it out)
Oh I fall asleep
But not so easily
As I might
Oh I try to keep
Every little thing
In mind
I poured out all my heart
And that's not the saddest part
All this time
I had thought
There'd be more
But oh it was like
There was nothing to pour
But oh I can't be sure
(Oh, I never can relax)
Oh I fall asleep
But not so easily
As I might
Oh I try to keep
Every little thing
In mind
