Lyrics
Yes, I will ©2002 John Gahl
I will be an airplane
Like the Spirit of Saint Louis
I will fly across the sky to you
Making shadows on the water
I will be a speedboat
Speeding round your bathtub
I?ll bump into your kneecaps
Get tangled in your dreams.
Chorus: Yes, I will
Oh yes, I will
Baby, baby, you know I will
I will be your island
Over the horizon
Swimming in the ocean
Sitting in the sun
After all those shipwrecks
Sinking to the bottom
I will be your landfall
I will be your solid one.
Chorus
I will be a diner
Waitin? by the roadside
Living out my diner life in the dying of the day
Neon in the night sky
Weeping like a fire
Turning like a lover
Burning like the milky way
Chorus
I will be your sideshow
Freak and geek and wild man
Eating swords and pocketknives
Putting on a show
Tattooed all over
A picture of your landscape
Your roadmap on my skin
And your body on my soul
