LYRICS
Paulusma - Somehow Anyhow 2019
I See You Through
It would be nice to see you
Some other day
For duty calls
And i'm not up for it anyway
Would be really nice to see you soon
And hold you in my arms
Whenever you're around
Will you be there
When i need you
O I promise
I'll take care of you
It would be nice to go out
For a walk
It's been a while
Since you and I have been in touch
Would be really nice to walk you home
I'd hold your hand for sure
I wouldn't ask for more
When you're lonely
I'll be there for you
We could go wild
We could leave it all behind
Wonderful you
I see you through
Whatever you do
I see you through
No Harm Done
Valerie is winding down the road
Left hanging out to dry
Looking for good times
Shooting pool in bars around the corner
Playing till she turns into stone
Where the road seems a dead end street
It's time to see
The sun will rise again
And by the time you hit that wall
Everything is under control
You come running home
Valerie is a troubled girl
Playin all the boys
Just making small talk
Shooting up around just about every corner
Tripping till she turns into stone
Where the road seems a dead end street
It's time to see
The sun will rise again
But by the time you think you hit that wall
Thunder's slowly rolling in
Lightning strikes randomly
Planes a-circling
Waiting to touch ground
Thunderbolt and hurricanes
Make you fly high again
'This is Ground Control to Major Tom'
There's no harm done
And by the time you think you hit the wall
You come running home
Back home
Quiet Little Place
​
Take me out
The world appears
A quiet little place
Quiet little place to hide
Take me out
The world appears
A quiet little place to hide in
Quiet little place to hide in
Fatherlike
After all these many years
I'm a lot like you
Didn't plan to be that way
But I'm a lot like you
And the truth is I'll be waiting
For the best to come
I am looking up to you
You're my friend
I'm your son
Fatherlike
Father's son
There's nothing much to choose
All the time I wasted on
Arguing with you
I don't care what some might say
We all have our faults
I'll be following your way
I don't mind getting old
And the truth is I'll be waiting
For the best to come
I am looking up to you
You're my friend
I'm your son
Fatherlike
Father's son
Getting closer to the truth
All the time I wasted on
Arguing with you
What a waste of time
Was it wasted time?
Singer Without Song
This melody
Inside your head
I don't understand
Why it sits there
Hey let it all come out
Yeah scream and shout
It's been there way too long
But no matter the heat is on
You're just a singer without a song
And a singer without a song
Is a lousy ass singer
This harmony
You call your own
I can't figure out
Why we'd need that
Hey let it all come out
Make me twist and shout
Play it fucking loud
And no matter the night is young
You're just a shooter without a gun
And a shooter without a gun
Is a lousy ass killer
These strange ideas
That you present
I don't understand
How it gets there
But no matter the heat is on
You're just a singer without a song
And no matter the night is young
You're just a shooter without a gun
Shooter without a gun
Singer without song
And a singer without a song
Is a lousy ass singer
Say Goodbye
My heart just skipped a beat
In the middle of the fight
Trying to get through to you
I didn't mean to steal
Wanted to take back what is mine
Didn't know what else to do
I simply wanted to get by
I didn't mean to turn the day into a fight
But I do believe
That everything's gonna be fine
The writing on the wall
Is my reading for the night
For twenty years or more to come
I'm longing to be free
But i'm just looking at my life
Slowly grinding to a halt
I simply wanted to get by
I didn't mean to turn the day into a fight
O but I still believe
Don't you worry baby it's gonna be just fine
I simply wanted to get by
I didn't mean to ruin the day and take a life
But everything is going to be fine
I simply wanted to get by
I simply wanted to say goodbye
Phones
​
It's the time of the season
It's a world full of thugs
Clouding our minds and
Speaking in tongues
On my phone
Me and my phone
It's just rhyme without reason
On Twitter accounts
Instagram feeds
That make the world go round
On my phone
Me and my phone
It's the time of the season
There is no one to blame
We are one happy family
In the virtual domain
On my phone
Me and my phone
Life's being groovy
To the innocent and young
While the adults awake
With the worries bout their sons
And their daughters and granddaughters
Wasting their time
Looking for kicks
Getting lost online
On my phone
Me and my phone
Crying Shame
Every little thing you do to me
Everything you give is all that i need
The colors that you paint
And how you fade to grey
And just because you're beautiful
I'll come out to play
I'm heading for the mountains, climb every tree
Dive to the ocean floor, conquer every sea
I get blinded by the light, desperate for the shade
Missing out on all of that would be a crying shame
When times are changing
With colors slowly fading
You better take your turn
Before you take the fall
Nothing ever feels the same
when everything's out of control
How about a little time, time on your own
Don't you take too much or you'll end up alone
Whenever you desire, I'll come out to play
Missing out on all of that would be a crying shame
Borrowed Time
Alcohol means the world to me
When there's nothing that seems to make things right Within the walls of the infirmary
Desperate for a drink, just trying to survive
And in my hour of need
Where i was looking for distraction
I simply wanted to resign
And leave it all behind
Our home just down the street
Was built upon our dreams and wasted time
How come after all those years
I'm getting closer to the point
Where i would leave it all behind
And in my hour of need
Where i was looking for distraction
I simply wanted to get out
The doctors told me to hang on
To keep it all together
We are closer to the point
Where we will figure something out
Beg steal or borrow
Whatever it takes
Like there's no tomorrow
Even if it's borrowed time
I don't know who will come for me
When things start going from bad to worse
I shoot the walls of the infirmary
While waiting on a friend that will never stop by
My legs and arms are heavy
And the walls they start to spin
Lying smack-dab in the middle of the floor
There's constant ringing in my ears
I can't keep myself together
I'm done with all this crap, I can't take it anymore
Beg steal or borrow
Whatever it takes
Like there's no tomorrow
There's no tomorrow
Drowning In Laughter
Where are the young ones
That we used to be
Always up for a new challenge
And we wandered the night
And watched the sun come up again
Somehow anyhow
We were the young ones
We made our own lives
All about music
And parties at night
Guitars were playing
And our singing filled the room
Weekends were made for us
Intoxicated by the innocence of youth
We couldn't get enough
We were standing on top of the mountain
Floating up above the world
Nobody worried
And memories were made
We were drowning in laughter
We did it our way
We were drowning in laughter
And we were ok
Drowning in laughter
Laughter remains
O we were the young ones
We did it our way
