Lyrics The World You Love - Jimmy Eat World

The World You Love

I got a story it’s almost finished
all i need is someone to tell it too
maybe, that’s you.
our time is borrowed and spent to freely
every minute i have needs to be made up
but how?
i’m looking for a nice way to say
«i'm out.»
i want out.
i fall asleep with my friends around me
only place i know, i feel safe
i’m gonna call this home
the open road is still miles away
Hey nothing serious
we still have our fun
oh we had it once
Windows open and close
that’s just how it goes
don’t it feel like sunshine afterall
the world we love forever, gone
we’re only just as happy
as everyone else seems to think we are
i’m in love with the ordinary
i need a simple space
and rest my head
everything gets clear
well i’m a little ashamed for asking
but just a little helps
it gets me straight again
helps me get over it (over it)
it might seem like a dream
but it’s real to me
don’t it feel like sunshine afterall
the world we love forever, gone
we’re only just as happy
as everyone else seems to think we are
you should see the canals are freezing
you should see me high
you should just be here
be with me here
it doesn’t seem theres hope for me
i let you down
but i won’t give in now
not for any amount
don’t it feel like sunshine afterall
the world we love forever, gone
we’re only just as happy
as everyone else seems to think we are
