She Just Wants To Be
R E M Song Lyrics
It's not that she walked away Her world got smaller All the usual places The same destinations Only something's changed. It's not that she wasn't rewarded With pomegranate afternoons And Mingus, Chet Baker and chess It's not stampede and fortune Of prim affectations She's off on a riot(?) And she knows now Is greater than the whole Of the past Is greater and now she knows She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. It's not that the transparency Of her earlier incarnations Now looked back on Were rich and loaded With beautiful vulnerability But now she knows Now is greater And she knows that. She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. Now is greater Now is greater And she knows that. She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. She just wants to be somewhere She just wants to be. It's not like if angels Could truly look down Stir up the trappings A light on the ground Remind us of what, when, why or who The how's up to us Me and you And now is greater than the whole Of the past Is greater and now she knows that. Now she knows. |
