LYRICS
It's gonna take time
To get to know this guy
Who calls himself "myself"
I've got a game without a name
Won't you play it with me?
Give it a try
Try looking at something without judgment in your eyes
It's so hard not to let your memory get in the way of what you see
And it's hard for me to remind myself that everything can change
So if I can change what I believe
And I can change what I see
How can I decide what's actually in front of me?
It's gonna take time to get to know this guy who calls himself myself
'Cause I've been feeling a little strange
When I start to think about my age
Because there's no man for whom time waits
I'd better get my mind straight
'Cause I'm a daydreamer
And I can't concentrate on anything
Except singing, wine and women
And what I'm doing for the next five minutes
Rearrange
I've gotta rearrange what I do with my days
'Cause I feel like a slave
I don't know how to behave
It's gonna take time to get to know this guy who calls himself myself
It's gonna take time
But I'm gonna get mine
"Cause I'm a daydreamer
And I can't concentrate on anything
I wont lie
I'm gonna try to get better at remembering
Thanks Mr Paul Fogarty! The live show has come a long way since I saw these videos... still very happy with the production value as it was $0.
