Sideways Lyrics by Citizen Cope

The Clarence Greenwood Recordings

2004

[Verse 1]
You know it ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There are no words to describe it
In French or in English

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you

[Chorus 1]
That these feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me

[Chorus 2]
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away

[Post-Chorus]
But these feelings won't go away
These feelings won't go away

[Verse 1]
It ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There are no words to describe it
In French or in English

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause diamonds they fade (diamonds they fade)
And flowers they bloom (flowers they bloom)
And I'm telling you

[Chorus 1]
That these feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me

[Chorus 2]
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away

[Chorus 2]
But these feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away

[Post-Chorus]
These feelings won't go away
These feelings won't go away

[Pre-Chorus]
Well diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you
And I'm telling you
And diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom (flowers they bloom)
And I'm telling you (I'm tellin' you)
And I'm telling you (I'm tellin' you)

[Chorus 1]
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me

[Chorus 2]
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away

[Chorus 2]
But these feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away

[Outro]
But these feelings won't go away
These feelings won't go away, no
These feelings won't go away
These feelings won't go away
