Songs That Weren’t Finished Lyrics by Jay Bennett

Bigger Than Blue

2004

Well, it's four in the morning and you're lying in bed
And songs you can't whistle are still stuck in your head
And it's six in the morning here and I'm twelve hours from you
I'm six hours full of lies and six hours from the truth
About songs that weren't finished in time
And words that weren't written to rhyme
And if I could stop shaking, I might get out of bed
And if I could stop listening to all the words in my head
About you reading poetry with a voice that's so weak
And how I kept on singing though I could hardly speak
About songs that weren't finished in time
And words that weren't written to rhyme
So, pick me up and turn mе 'round and let me down
Let mе know and I'll be back
A little voice inside me cracks, says "I'll be back"
"Yeah, I'll be back"
With all the elements of style and all the elements of grace
But no evidence of cheating and wear on your face
But it can't tame the hunger, you can't quench the thirst
The lies or the lying, you don't know which came first
Songs that weren't finished in time
And words that weren't written to rhyme
So, pick me up and let me down and turn me 'round
Let me know and I'll be back
A little voice inside me cracks, says "I'll be back"
"Yeah, I'll be back"
