Heard the World > 03.15.2003

i just heard the world
is breaking down into pieces again
what am i to do

and you just want me to stay here
so i'm just going to stay here with you
i've been picking up my life today
i've been dreaming about a wife today, and it's you
just give me one more minute of time
i promise you i'll make you up
i'll make you up this feast for two
and you, you believe in me
and i, i sure as hell believe in you

but if this world is crumbling down
i don't spend a minute away from you
just call me, call me to you

it was august, the fifteenth day
i had a dream that i was alone
it was a nightmare at best
and, oh i walk, i move on
my soles of my shoes are worn down
without you

so if this world is crumbling down
i won't spend a minute away from you
so the second you feel the earth start to move
just call me and i'll come right home to you
i'll come right home
home to you

oh no, i woke up in a bed of sweat
you crumbled up and walked away from me again
why don't you pick up
the dream where i left you

it's funny how when you dream
you remember those little things
like the color of the house plan
like the color of the rug we spend
like the color of the day we were
remember every single word
but i can't remember you, and i try

so if this world is crumbling down
oh, i don't want to be away
if you feel the earth start to move today
just call me and i'll come
i'll come home
i'm coming home

i'll come home to you
i'll come home to you
and only you
i cannot wait to carry you over this threshold
call it home
wherever you want me to be
i'll be home

because i just heard the world
is crumbling down
and i don't want to be alone
