Mojo - Inspired by a True Story

Wind in the water
Joy on the breeze
A poets words
With naked knees

Tired tongues
Air-tight lungs
Feet on fire
World of desire
Clad in plaid
Dream in cream
Running until our legs gave out
You strummed on my heart strings with clout

A mild spirit
That helped me take flight
Like the airplanes overhead
I scaled the sky, away from my plight

This cavity of sorrow
Would surely have swallowed me whole
Had I not taken this risk,
Given you control

I don't know what Fate expects
Or what Destiny brings
But I won't hide within these fairy rings

Wishing for love
Hoping for joyWandering this Earth
With such an enchanting boy

I found my way home
Your ghost in the passenger seat
Where next will we roam?
I wondered, with a curiosity sweet

I dream of driving with you
Down the road to nowhere
Singing at the tops of our lungs
Melodies reflecting a heart so bare

So bare and untouched
A fear we had clutched
now releasing, and we're singing:

"What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It's silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

So throw those curtains wide.
One day like this a year'd see me right."
