Cobblestone Lyrics by Jayani

2021

[Verse]
Converse on the cobblestone of canal bridges I stop for a moment
Check my notebook see what I wrote up for this city and
I'm stalling now jotting down my thoughts
In the first café to open on this street in Amsterdam

No clue where I'm heading but I'm nervous here alone
I find a bike and ride around my phone is dead
The wind navigates instead
Floating through this checkered landscape like a feather
Ride the current just the way I'm gonna go...

[Chorus 1]
I used to think I'd be better off
If I just severed my connections and posted up in a forest
Hands in my pockets
Streaming through these shop tents
Laughing at my thoughts and what you might say
Now here I am, wishing for someone to share my time with

[Verse 2]
Later in the center of the square
A band is playing live
Intoxicated homeless men in pairs tryin' to dance the jive
While stepping up in groups of two to three
Travellers to take part in the nonsense unfolding on this street

Well, questioning I hold my gaze on the big guy with the top hat
Sat back relaxed against the curvature of steps for bleachers
Two women approach
They ask me on an adventure but I don't want to
Drift in the wind anymore
Suddenly, I'm reacting to the fact I'm detached and alone

[Chorus 2]
I used to think I'd be better off
If I just severed my connections and posted up in a forest
Smile at a new face (hello)
Wave when we split ways (goodbye)
Feel temporary, no home base
Now here I am, wishing for someone to share my time with
(wishing for someone)
Here I am, wishing to share my time

[Bridge]
You'll never need to replace my shape in your heart
Nothing can take me away for too long
You'll never need to replace my shape in your heart
My shape in your heart

[Outro]
Now here I am, wishing for someone
To share my time with
