Paroles de I Will Not Return As A Tourist

Lately I’ve been feeling so strange
Wake up dreaming of cheap love and aeroplanes
I could never take what I needed
Our moments of pleasure were fleeting
And lately I’ve been feeling so cruel
This weak plastic portrait painted of you
I could never draw out a meaning
Nothing more than a dishonest feeling

But you know it’s not in me tonight
No words, nothing in sight

And lately I’ve been feeling so restless
I drove to a small town last weekend just to see where my head is
It’s not here
All I found was a lounge with a jazz singer
“Blue Velvet”
But how high do we need to get before we see
We’re stuck on the ground?
I’ve been saving money
For a greyhound ticket
And I swear I’ll be getting out soon
You know I love you

But you know it’s not in me tonight
No words, nothing in sight Lost my keys but found my wallet on the nightstand
Spent the night in someone else’s bed
I can’t stand
Spending nights away from home
But that’s all that I’ve been doing
It's all that I’ve been doing
Then I woke up
With the city on my mind
I can’t keep up with my mind
It’s always rushing to the next love
But when I return I swear it will not be as a tourist
Will not be as a tourist

But you know it’s not in me tonight
No words, nothing in sight
