Lyrics

I was in search of it
Was in a lull in my life
Even in church for it
You think I wasn't very uptight
Evenings turn from this

To where it all quiets down now
Down now

I rolled back 'cross these days
I wonder if they'll remain
Are so many thrills out in front of me
Will Paris girls always smile and scream
for me
They left me up a few flights
And showed me more than just sights
Our shadows danced like a symphony
On the bedroom wall and on loft ceiling

All of that dies while
I've been doing all the things that I've done before
Wish I could smile while
I'm feeling no pain 'cause I've gone numb
I'll wish they were mine again
Yeah, if there's still time
Maybe I'll pretend
As it all quiets down now

Still I don't know what we can be anymore
I'm not sure what's in store
All I know is by letting life go where it may
Could go wrong
Or take far too long

Till it all quiets down now
Down now

Until the fat lady sings
Or it bursts into flames
Are there any thrills left in front of me
When Paris girls barely smile or tease
Then leave

Now take me up a few flights
To show me more than just sights
How shadows dance like the symphony
On your bedroom walls and on loft ceilings

All of that dies while
I've been doing other things that I've done before
Wish I could smile while
I'm feeling no pain man I've gone bored
I wish they were mine again
Yeah, if there's still time before I descend
Yeah, if there's still time maybe I'll pretend
As it all quiets down now
