[Verse:]
I saw you dance and sing on stage
With your bare feet and your hair in braids
You pressed your lips against your horn
If I could only be the notes you mourn
[Pre-Chorus:]
Ever since I heard my first love song
I've been looking for you all along
I know I can't be wrong
[Chorus:]
I know you don't feel it now
But I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Someday baby somehow
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Oooooo
Oooooo
[Verse:]
I wanna strum upon your strings
And make you cry love cry a loving
Dance drunk into your heart's beat
And kiss you in the moonlight in the middle of the street
[Pre-Chorus:]
I know that we've both been here before
In another lifetime maybe more
It's karma I'm sure
[Chorus:]
I know you don't feel it now
But I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Someday baby somehow
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Oooooo
Oooooo
[Bridge:]
I took you driving down to Big Sur
Down the coast of California
You held your head out of the window
And you stared out at the ocean
You never heard the albums Graceland or Blue
I played them both for you
The songs of my youth
[Chorus:]
I know you don't feel it now
But I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Someday baby somehow
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Oooooo
Oooooo
Only Rain Lyrics – Brett Dennen
You haven't said it but I hear it so loud
And there's a cloud around your head, yes it is
I stick around, I could be a stranger in your town
Or I could fly half way around the world just to be turned down
Don't hold back your tears from falling
Don't pretend they're for me, darling
You can tell me I'm not the one
I know the sun is shining somewhere
Oh, on someone it's only rain
Doesn't mean the day's over
It don't change the way I feel, it doesn't change a thing
Only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, yes, it is
You gone on magazines and the silver screen
They hear the gold that's in your heart
I'll be fine, oh, I can stay with an old friend of mine
I can find myself some California wine
Don't hold back your tears from falling
Don't pretend they're for me, darling
You can tell me I'm not the one
I know the sun is shining somewhere
On someone it's only rain
Doesn't mean the day's over
It don't change the way I feel, it doesn't change a thing
It's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain
Yes, it is, alright, yeah, it's only rain, oh yeah
Ooh, ooh, oh yeah, it's only rain, doesn't mean the day is over
It don't change the way I feel, no way, it doesn't change a thing
No, it doesn't change a thing, doesn't change a thing
Doesn't change a thing, no, it's only rain, it's only rain, yes, it is
Ooh, it's only rain, it's only
And there's a cloud around your head, yes it is
I stick around, I could be a stranger in your town
Or I could fly half way around the world just to be turned down
Don't hold back your tears from falling
Don't pretend they're for me, darling
You can tell me I'm not the one
I know the sun is shining somewhere
Oh, on someone it's only rain
Doesn't mean the day's over
It don't change the way I feel, it doesn't change a thing
Only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, yes, it is
You gone on magazines and the silver screen
They hear the gold that's in your heart
I'll be fine, oh, I can stay with an old friend of mine
I can find myself some California wine
Don't hold back your tears from falling
Don't pretend they're for me, darling
You can tell me I'm not the one
I know the sun is shining somewhere
On someone it's only rain
Doesn't mean the day's over
It don't change the way I feel, it doesn't change a thing
It's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain
Yes, it is, alright, yeah, it's only rain, oh yeah
Ooh, ooh, oh yeah, it's only rain, doesn't mean the day is over
It don't change the way I feel, no way, it doesn't change a thing
No, it doesn't change a thing, doesn't change a thing
Doesn't change a thing, no, it's only rain, it's only rain, yes, it is
Ooh, it's only rain, it's only
Can't Stop Thinking Lyrics – Brett Dennen
I was numb, I couldn't sleep
Gently strung out on caffeine
Did I fall in love or was I just delirious?
I was dumb, found you
My dirty mind was wanderin'
I was wishin' that I could be kissin' your skin
And now you're in my head
You're always in my head
And now you're in my head
And I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment that I wake up
No, I can't stop thinkin' about you
And it makes me sad
Because I know that you don't want me
And all these thoughts in my head
They tease me and they taunt me, oh, yeah
All the broken hearts in London town
Strewn about the tube in the underground
All the voices burning in my brain
And making me insane
And now you're in my head
You're always in my head
And now you're in my head
And I, I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment that I wake up
You know I can't stop thinkin' about you
And it makes me sad
Because I know that you don't want me
All these thoughts up in my head
They tease me and they taunt me, taunt me, alright, yeah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment that I wake up
You know I can't stop thinkin' about you
I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment, from the moment that I wake up
I can't stop thinkin' about you
I said I can't, I can't stop thinkin'
No, I can't, I can't stop thinking about you
No, no, no, I can't stop
I can't stop thinking about you, about you, baby
From the moment, from the moment that I wake up
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stop thinking about you
Gently strung out on caffeine
Did I fall in love or was I just delirious?
I was dumb, found you
My dirty mind was wanderin'
I was wishin' that I could be kissin' your skin
And now you're in my head
You're always in my head
And now you're in my head
And I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment that I wake up
No, I can't stop thinkin' about you
And it makes me sad
Because I know that you don't want me
And all these thoughts in my head
They tease me and they taunt me, oh, yeah
All the broken hearts in London town
Strewn about the tube in the underground
All the voices burning in my brain
And making me insane
And now you're in my head
You're always in my head
And now you're in my head
And I, I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment that I wake up
You know I can't stop thinkin' about you
And it makes me sad
Because I know that you don't want me
All these thoughts up in my head
They tease me and they taunt me, taunt me, alright, yeah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment that I wake up
You know I can't stop thinkin' about you
I can't stop thinkin' about you
All day long, it's all I do
From the moment, from the moment that I wake up
I can't stop thinkin' about you
I said I can't, I can't stop thinkin'
No, I can't, I can't stop thinking about you
No, no, no, I can't stop
I can't stop thinking about you, about you, baby
From the moment, from the moment that I wake up
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stop thinking about you
Must Be Losing My Mind Lyrics – Brett Dennen
Burned out in the lawn in Tuscon, Arizona
With the scavengers on 4th Avenue
Feeling old, boredom of the second hand stores
Hoping maybe I could find something new
Now, now, now, now, now
Here it comes
Here it comes again
Behind the theater, in the alley by the dumpsters
Far away from the glow of the marquee
There alone in the darkness, below the Hotel Congress
I was [?] for a second but I then I fell asleep
Now here it comes
Here it comes again, ah
Yeah, here comes that feeling, yeah
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
I must be losing my mind
Oh, my God, there's ghosts in my hotel room
Why do they bother me here?
Oh, my heart, hey, where is my lover?
She, she built a way to the southern hemisphere
I hear them laughing at me, the nuns are laughing at me
The homes are laughing at me too
They think I'm lying in there, they think I'm foolish but that
But that don't make me a fool, no, no, no, no, no, no
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
But it sure feels fine, you know it sure feels fine
Who am I talking to and what am I saying
Why doubt these words I don't believe?
There's no one stopping you so why are you staying?
Are you as crazy as me?
Huh, I'm in these shadows dying, lying in this street
Nobody's set their soul, anything at all
Nobody notices, no one goes in there
And it scares me, don't know where, nowhere at all
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
Yeah, you know but it sure feels fine
You know it sure feels right
Yeah, it does, yes, it does
Ah, here it comes again
Uh, yeah, it's coming on strong again
You know, I'm dancing with my thoughts again
Yeah, my words they don't make any sense and no, no, no
And no, no, no, no, here it comes again, yeah
Ah, these feelings I don't understand
Ah, I'm dancing with my thoughts again
My, my words they don't make any sense
No, no, no, no
They just don't make any sense
With the scavengers on 4th Avenue
Feeling old, boredom of the second hand stores
Hoping maybe I could find something new
Now, now, now, now, now
Here it comes
Here it comes again
Behind the theater, in the alley by the dumpsters
Far away from the glow of the marquee
There alone in the darkness, below the Hotel Congress
I was [?] for a second but I then I fell asleep
Now here it comes
Here it comes again, ah
Yeah, here comes that feeling, yeah
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
I must be losing my mind
Oh, my God, there's ghosts in my hotel room
Why do they bother me here?
Oh, my heart, hey, where is my lover?
She, she built a way to the southern hemisphere
I hear them laughing at me, the nuns are laughing at me
The homes are laughing at me too
They think I'm lying in there, they think I'm foolish but that
But that don't make me a fool, no, no, no, no, no, no
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
I must be losing my mind
(I'm losing, I'm losing, I'm losing my mind)
But it sure feels fine, you know it sure feels fine
Who am I talking to and what am I saying

They just don't make any sense
Song For Leaving Lyrics – Brett Dennen
Like a southbound train
Here's a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Moon with a halo
Like a pearl in a peasant's hand
Religion on the radio
Advertising a promised land
Everything that attaches
Someday falls apart
When the plan collapses
It can break your heart
Like a southbound train
This is a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Like a southbound train
Here is a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
To the airport in the rain
Sadness seeping through
Leaving faith on a jet plane
Hurling through the blue
Love is the tear
That taught me to fall
Whispered in my ear
Soothing me to my soul
Like a southbound train
Here's a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Quiet constellations
I don't walk through the night
Silent salutations
Under a southwestern sky
Battlegrounds behind me
Smoke in the trees
Memories to remind me
Puts my soul to ease
Like a southbound train
Here's a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Like a southbound train
This is a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
This is a train
Get on the train
Get on the train...
Here's a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Moon with a halo
Like a pearl in a peasant's hand
Religion on the radio
Advertising a promised land
Everything that attaches
Someday falls apart
When the plan collapses
It can break your heart
Like a southbound train
This is a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Like a southbound train
Here is a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
To the airport in the rain
Sadness seeping through
Leaving faith on a jet plane
Hurling through the blue
Love is the tear
That taught me to fall
Whispered in my ear
Soothing me to my soul
Like a southbound train
Here's a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Quiet constellations
I don't walk through the night
Silent salutations
Under a southwestern sky
Battlegrounds behind me
Smoke in the trees
Memories to remind me
Puts my soul to ease
Like a southbound train
Here's a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
Like a southbound train
This is a song for leaving
Don't you know the pain
It's a part of the healing
This is a train
Get on the train
Get on the train...
Queen Of The Westside Lyrics – Brett Dennen
Where is my shit?
oh
you know it
She's making love for breakfast
in Venice
In the little white house with rent control
She's got
Turquoise tiles on the counter in the kitchen
she cooks she listens to Nina Simone
and all the hipsters on the east side
they think they're too cool for school
but they don't know
She's the queen of the west side
and she rocks me to my soul
she rocks me to my soul
She's sunbathing in her bare skin
I'm jealous of the light shining on her back
"Where is my shit?"
Well, I'm walking down Montana and I'm singing I'm in heaven
Hoping that she asks me to come back
All the know it alls on the Northside
They think they know
They dont know
What I know
She's the Queen of the Westside
yes she is
she rocks me to my soul
she rocks me to my soul
she rocks me to my soul
oh
you know it
She's making love for breakfast
in Venice
In the little white house with rent control
She's got
Turquoise tiles on the counter in the kitchen
she cooks she listens to Nina Simone
and all the hipsters on the east side
they think they're too cool for school
but they don't know
She's the queen of the west side
and she rocks me to my soul
she rocks me to my soul
She's sunbathing in her bare skin
I'm jealous of the light shining on her back
"Where is my shit?"
Well, I'm walking down Montana and I'm singing I'm in heaven
Hoping that she asks me to come back
All the know it alls on the Northside
They think they know
They dont know
What I know
She's the Queen of the Westside
yes she is
she rocks me to my soul
she rocks me to my soul
she rocks me to my soul
Little Cosmic Girl Lyrics – Brett Dennen
When you're sleeping, safe from harm
What you do dream about when you're in my arms?
All through the night the world was spinning
At the speed of light
Wars were fought, while I held you tight
You fell deep into an untamed sleep
When the moon begin to creep
And the comets keep their promises
While the constellations weep
[Chorus:]
Little cosmic girl, isn't it a big world?
Say, don't you worry about the little things
Don't let the daylight rob your dreams
Little cosmic girl, isn't it a wild world?
There is love and there is sadness
And there are miracles and madness
And we may never understand
No we may never understand
We are traveling in a minstrel's circus
In that caravan across the universe
All at once our bitter grudges
Were put to rest
Deaths were mourned, while births were blessed
Are we an accident in time
Or part of a grand design
Press your body close to mine
[Chorus x2]
Tell me do you believe, my little cosmic girl, in what you cannot see
Do you believe [3x] in what you cannot see, my little cosmic girl
[Repeats to fade out]
What you do dream about when you're in my arms?
All through the night the world was spinning
At the speed of light
Wars were fought, while I held you tight
You fell deep into an untamed sleep
When the moon begin to creep
And the comets keep their promises
While the constellations weep
[Chorus:]
Little cosmic girl, isn't it a big world?
Say, don't you worry about the little things
Don't let the daylight rob your dreams
Little cosmic girl, isn't it a wild world?
There is love and there is sadness
And there are miracles and madness
And we may never understand
No we may never understand
We are traveling in a minstrel's circus
In that caravan across the universe
All at once our bitter grudges
Were put to rest
Deaths were mourned, while births were blessed
Are we an accident in time
Or part of a grand design
Press your body close to mine
[Chorus x2]
Tell me do you believe, my little cosmic girl, in what you cannot see
Do you believe [3x] in what you cannot see, my little cosmic girl
[Repeats to fade out]
