You laugh beside me, you needed this coffee Your legs are too long for my passenger seat Your brother's a dropout, you've thought about Giving up on science in pursuit of higher thinking
My heart gets ahead of me always, always You're talking in verses to me always, always You'll never live up to myths that I made of you
My bones and veins had to learn to be brave You would lie with Goliath to have it both ways All of my friends thought that you'd stick around You sounded so great
But you're just a boy with a biblical name
My heart gets ahead of me always, always
I'd give you the benefit always, always
You'll never live up to myths that I made of you Nothing's forever
I've got to live with that too
