From the recording In Case You Just Tuned In (LP)
Lyrics
She's a hay fever burning up the townsmen
She's a rainmaker diving off the deep end
She's a minefield waiting in disguise
Poised just to ignite at the right time
She's a godsend
She's the doctor that you get sick for
Knock me out all you want but I don't need the cure
In our last session I confessed to my obsession
But she met me in the middle and surely got my attention
See maybe you can tell me why
You're a city-smoking dime I'm a five in my mind
Your divine intervention and I'm on my knees
If I could ask you one thing, all I'd say is please don't go
So close, so far away
Can you find a way, find a way
So close, so far away
Can you find a way?
She's the storm cloud mucking up your travel plans
She's the fine line that you thought you drew in the sand
She's the string that's wearing on your finger
Come a little closer and dig a little deeper
Fall down face first, laid flat on the floor
I've sunk and I've swam and I've fallen before
And I'll find my head I'm almost sure
Whoa-oh
Oh
So close, so far away
Can you find a way, find a way
So close, so far away
Can you find a way?
She's a hay fever burning up the townsmen
She's a rainmaker diving off the deep end
She's a lesson learned
Penny spent's a penny earned
Hell sent and heaven burned
Now I know just what I'm worth
Fall down face first, laid flat on the floor
I've sunk and I've swam and I've fallen before
And I'll find my head I'm almost sure
Whoa-oh
Oh
