Story
This is an old song that was released on the now out of print Flatlands cd 'The Open Road Sessions.' I'm sure there are copies of the disc floating around out there, and the thought keeps me up nights. Even though the song is 8 years old, I still enjoy playing it and it's frequently part of my live set.
Lyrics
Feeling irrational in an irrational time
Being rational in a rational mind
Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
I am seeing you
Are you seeing me?
She is listening to every word he'll say
Why don't you come with me I'll take you far away
To where the sun does shine
I will be yours
If you will be mine
Look into my eyes
Tell me how I feel
Get inside my head
Let me know if the pain is real
There are miles of time
Inside my guitar
Feelings I've felt
That will never get far
Everything you see is upside down
When you think I smile I really frown
Absurdity is all that I can find
I'm not your problem so don't be mine
Look into my eyes
Tell me how I feel
Get inside my head
Let me know if the pain is real
There are miles of time
Inside my guitar
Feelings I've felt
That will never get far
Feeling irrational in an irrational time
Being rational in a rational mind
Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
I am seeing you
Are you seeing me?
