| | When It Gets That Way Lyrics Artist(Band):Dar Williams
I just go where I like, and he knows that. I walk alone into any party, I'm alone tonight In that high-heeled ego old hat. Oh blue night, laughter at the bell toll. People move like streaks of charcoal. Someone found a prince in the punchbowl. But high times fizzle out in a change of heart, And we know things fall apart. The morning's off to a bad start. It's raining. Have you had nights like this? I run miles to his place, wake him up to look at his face. I feel astray, and I love it when it gets that way. The child is so young, they say that child is truly free And with a mind of perpetual invention. So why is it now I'm a grown-up, all grown up And yet now I fly through the ceilings of convention? Oh new friend, borne out of a mind-cloud. Make believe and yet I laugh aloud. I've cried when you have stood ground. But sometimes playtimes are a ghost I've faced, In that room that I've erased. The air is empty and druglaced. I am completely gone. Are you still with me, then? With my head so big and awfully, Take my hand and lead me softly, And then you stay, and I love it when it gets that way. And when I was crazy maybe I wanted, I wanted, I wanted to be steady as an iceberg, And with nowhere fast a-going. Now, now I can handle the danger zone with hailstones all a-flying, And the crazy winds a-blowing. These days I haven't been smoking my lungs brown, Have that itch to turn my life around, Maybe move on to a new town. Cause good friends lifted me out of an early tomb., Pulled my life out from its doom, Like sun into a big room And where my roots have grown. I really can't let go Through the woods and through the fields climb Up the mountain into nighttime, Into the day, and I love it when it gets that way.
