lyrics

Inspiration Comes to Me

Passion isn’t a nice view of the sea. It is the sea. It’s the deepest, scariest part of the sea
With the stingray, great white shark, seals and soft seaweed.
Where in the unknown lurks danger and buried treasures
How life as we know it is measured.

So, when passion radiates out of the pores of strangers
Those on the same plain are connected by magnets
An immediate split second connection
Where we savour the flavour of raw emotion detection
And then your life can be changed in a second
The threat of Armageddon is lessened

Two paths collide. This is happening now
Go with the flow and honour, don’t ponder the how
We’re living in the present moment – in being
This isn’t a dream, it’s reality
Breath comes easy, It’s needed for recovery, and all the while the inspiration comes to me.

My head is a little screwed up
And I’m having trouble concentrating on the regular stuff
Who would have thought, it was only a weekend
But I want to rewind it and do it over again
Breath comes easy, it’s needed for recovery, and all the while the inspiration comes to me.

So I gave in to your metaphorical whirlwind
Caressing and eating up my forelimbs
You made love to me and did my dishes
And rapped hip-hop verses so specific
Unable to express my admiration – I’m taken
My words as Wordsworth’s were without arms to reach the wall, lost in a labyrinth vacant
I watched visceral visually impressed by lyrical mystery
If only for a moment enchanted by your beauty
Breath comes easy, it’s needed for recovery and all the while the inspiration comes to me

Flying it comes, flying it goes
Faster than a flower in the sunlight grows
Its aftershock still blissfully rattles my bones
Causing me to shiver and quiver down below
Breath comes easy, it’s needed for recovery and all the while the inspiration comes to me

We all have our own schemes, our own lives, our own dreams
So I respect your freedom and your self determination
But I’d like to see you again on another fine occasion – in a different destination
Am I being optimistic or am I realistic while arranging the logistics?

Now I gotta say, I don’t feel this way everyday
And gentle whirlwind dear, you’ve got your own distinctive way
Self searcher, fine flirter, hot and bothered, globe trotter
Armed with intelligence, a myriad of mystery
Mind open, you’ve sparked my creativity
and all the while the inspiration comes to me.

Breath comes easy, it’s needed for recovery and all the while the inspiration comes to me.
