Suspended In Gaffa
Out in the gardenThere's half of a heaven,And we're only bluffing.We're not ones for busting through walls,
But they've told usUnless we can proveThat we're doing it,We can't have it all.
He's gonna wangleA way to get out of it.She's an excuseAnd a witness who'll talk when he's called.
But they've told usUnless we can proveThat we're doing it,We can't have it all.We can't have it all.
"I caught a glimpse of a god, all shining and bright."
Suddenly my feet are feet of mud.It all goes slo-mo.I don't know why I'm crying.Am I suspended in Gaffa?Not until I'm ready for you,Not until I'm ready for youCan I have it all.
I try to get nearer,But as it gets clearerThere's something appears in the way,It's a plank in me eye,
With a camelWho's trying to get through it,Am I doing it?Can I have it all now?
I pull out the plank and say"Thank you for yanking me backTo the fact that there'sAlways something to distract."
But sometimes it's hardTo know if I'm doing it right.Can I have it all?Can I have it all now?We can't have it all.
"We all have a dream...maybe."
Suddenly my feet are feet of mud.It all goes slo-mo.I don't know why I'm crying.Am I suspended in Gaffa?Not until I'm ready for you,Not until I'm ready for youCan I have it all.
I won't open boxesThat I am told not to.I'm not a Pandora.I'm much more like
That girl in the mirror.Between you and meShe don't stand a chance of getting anywhere at all.Not anywhere at all.No, not a thing.She can't have it all.
"Mother, where are the angels? I'm scared of the changes."
Suddenly my feet are feet of mud.It all goes slo-mo.I don't know why I'm crying.Am I suspended in Gaffa?Not until I'm ready for you,Not until I'm ready for youCan I have it all.
