The Main Mix
Come back to Iowa and play some RnR. It's January 2025 and it's freezing outside.
Playing in a nice bar venue, and drinking Old Fashions and Negronis would warm up the place.
Today I'm afraid and I don't know why
I keep thinking of that look in your eye
We've never met except here in this room
In the place being filled by the sonic boom
Sometimes I get too close to the sound
I want to make something you like
I want to make something you don't
I want to sing a song you'll hear
I want to sing a song you won't
Sometimes I get too close to the ground
Sonic boom
Sonic boom
There are so many things I can't change
So many things I can
So many times I wake up
Lucky to be and luck in hand
I lie in the place just after the dream
Trying to pull my mind from the seam
Sometimes I get too close to see
A moonlight drive on a temple lane
Waiting for visions beyond the range
Sometimes I wait so long
Why do I wait? Why don't I feel at home?
Sometimes I get too close to go home
Sonic boom
Sonic boom
The sound of a heartbeat gives me hope
From way down within
For the water and the trees and the land and the fire
And our precious oxygen
Sometimes I get too close to the sound
Sometimes I get too close to the sound
Sonic boom
Sonic boom
Sonic boom
Me too! More Patty Griffin, but let's listen to it for awhile. And there's a video... Dang, how I LOVE RadioParadise! Never a dull moment, and a lot of really fun stuff in betwixt the mayhem...
...yeah, me too...
But here you are anyway...
This one doesn't do much for me. 5
