Neil Young – Almost Always Lyrics

featuring: Promise Of The Real

Verse 1
Lately I been thinking
'Bout the changing world
Trying to fit in pieces of dreams
Just trying to add it up
Figure out what it means
When a lost planet comes tumbling home
Does it have to have a beard
To break free from what is here
And continue to pick up those pieces of dreams
And I'm living with a game show host
Who has to brag and has to boast
I'm tearing down the things that I hold dear

Verse 2
While the day is with us
And the birds are near
Singing in the sun, basking in its light
As it just risen
Through the fogs of fear
Can I take a minute to do what's right
Before that starts me thinking
Distracting me again
Do I have something to say?
Maybe just a feeling
That things are bound to change
Or just that crazy searchlight
Lighting someone's way

Verse 3
I'm not gonna work it out
Right here and right now
I got some things to do, got some calls to make
Hear that crazy little bird
Calling out its song
Standing out on a limb almost too long
Staying out 'til it's May
She answers every time
She answers every time
Every time
Almost always
