You were always my favourite
Even before I knew you
People could see right through you
To those fingers crossed behind your back, so
Lemmie hear what you're listening to
Peel me one of those hard boiled eggs
You only feed a dog that begs, so
If you pretty please
And I will tell you where the sunshine goes
When the cars all park and the bars all close
It goes sailing over a deep, dark ocean
Cause there's only motion. There is no repose
Every kiss is a kiss goodbye
Every bruise is a souvenir
Hold on tight till they disappear
It's harder to remember now we're
Held up by the parade
Wipe those tears off the steering wheel
No one really knows how you feel
So do not be afraid
Because those headlights do not understand
They illuminate but can't comprehend
They are seen and see and still they have no notion
That there's only motion. There is no repose
I will tell you where the moonlight goes
When the bluebirds sing and the green grass grows
It goes rolling over a deep, dark ocean
Cause there's only motion. There is no repose
There is only motion. There is no repose
There is only motion. There is no repose
Said there is only motion. There is no repose
