Evan Greer - Two Dollars And A Notebook Lyrics

Submitted by: Dakota (#3749)
Current Rating: None
remember that day back in '92?
crackerjack crayons on the first day of school
livin' in a haze of rainy playground days
can be so cruel.
in a newsprint classroom
that i couldn't understand,
i knew how to fly, but not how to land
and i could count my friends
with the fingers on one hand
but that was then,
or is this then and that was now?

(chorus)
now i sing my happy song
me myself and i we all get along
but the other guy never keeps his side of the deal
and i've been a skeleton in too many closets
to ever hope
to ever hope this could be real.

well i busted into boston at the age of 23
my wallet gettin' light and my guitar gettin heavy
and i had to bum a dollar to take the t
so i could go nowhere.
in an orange chair on the red line
i asked an old man if he had the time
and he said:
kid, i've got more than you will ever know.

i'm pickin' up the pieces of a jigsaw jumble
but they keep slippin' through my hands
i was too far upside down to take a tumble
i was too far rightside up to dance

sometimes life is a book
with the pages stuck together
from some gum that you left there
when you were ten
but i know that if i don't find it
i will still know that
my god writes in pen.
he writes in pen.
