Two birds one one electric wire
Cutting through an autumn sky

Make note and mind to write this down
But now I am, and I don't know how

I could explain what it might mean
Or why it seemed to be so

Very noteworthy to me

Why does everything l see
Go and bring me to my knees

I think I'm either gonna go to this party
Or die right where I stand

I think I'm either gonna go to this party
Or die right where I stand

Another man
Taking my hand
Although he can
Understand me

Closing my eyes onboard the train
While everybody stays awake

Their faces on a blue light screen
And yours is featured in my dreams

The memory
The memory
The memory
The memory
The memory
The memory

As the train tracks twist and bend
I awake to where I've been

I think I'm either gonna go to this party
Or die right where I stand

I think I'm either gonna go to this party
Or die right where I stand

Another man
Taking my hand
I know he can
Understand me

I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
I know you can

I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
