Stephen Kellogg - I Know Why lyrics

I'll miss you, I'll miss myself when I go away And when I don't know anyone that's there, That's when I'll know that I should stay I carry with me a burgundy balloon And a book about a seagull that transcends Every time that I choose not to settle down, It's like I'm running up a bill with a friend He comes upstairs and asks me for some help, I say "Why don't you sit down I'll lay the answer out in front of you On condition that you turn it down." We never talk, we never hangout anymore, Some sort of social defense The clever way I present my case, A mending wall that's like a fence I Know Why because I believe The more perfect I become The easier it is to leave I could say "fare thee well" and pa** it off like I don't care Or we could meet up in St. Louis, If both of us should happen to be there I'm like a clown that isn't funny, As I dance across your door You're on the verge of something big, I'm on the verge of something more Just to leave, Just leave...eventually I didn't think that you were serious, It seemed a little bit obscene Over a meal of blatant contradictions It was a look I'd never seen I'm headed west, I'm headed east, I've got this carpool with the wind Buy me a ticket to nowhere in particular, When I get through with this loneliness That's when I'll know I'm in Or we could drive across the planet, I'll navigate if you pay gas A cast of questionable characters, A troop of fools until the last I hear there's still room on the roster, So said the stranger with the double-sided coin If there's room for two good people I don't see why we shouldn't join I know Why because I believe The more perfect we become The easier it is to leave --- I Know Why as written by Harry/gordon Warren Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing Lyrics powerd by LyricFind
