Guster – Come Downstairs And Say Hello lyrics

Dorothy moves to click her ruby shoes
right in tune with "Dark Side of the Moon"
someone, someone could tell me
where i belong
be calm, be brave, it'll be okay

no more messing around and living underground
or new year's resolutions
by this time next year, i won't be here
i turn on, turn on MTV, the volume's down
lips move, they say
it'll be okay

to tell you the truth, i've said it before
tomorrow i start in a new direction
one last time these words from me
i'm never saying them again
and i shut the light
and listen as my watch unwinds

to tell you the truth i've said it before
tomorrow i start in a new direction
i know i've been half-asleep
i'm never doing that again

i look straight at what's coming ahead
and soon it's going to change in a new direction
every night as i'm falling asleep
these words repeated in my head

voices calling from a yellow road
to come downstairs and say hello
don't be shy, just say hello

to tell you the truth i've said it before
tomorrow i start in a new direction
i know i've been half-asleep

i'm never doing that again
i look straight at what's coming ahead
and soon it's going to change in a new direction
every night as i'm falling asleep
those words repeated in my head
