I want very much

lyrics

I WANT VERY MUCH

I WANT VERY MUCH TO BE IN TOUCH
WITH HOW I FEEL INSIDE
I WANT VERY MUCH TO BE IN TOUCH
WITH HOW I FEEL INSIDE

BUT THESE VOICES IN HEAD ARE TALKING AT ME
AND THEY MAKE IT VERY HARD FOR ME TO SEE HOW I FEEL
TALKIN AND A JABBERIN A MILE A MINUTE
AND IT'S SO HARD TO KEEP FROM GETTING CAUGHT UP IN IT
AND SWEPT AWAY
AWAY FROM TODAY

OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA, OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA, OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

IT'S JUST FEAR IN ALL ITS DISGUISES
FEAR AND ALL ITS COMPROMISES
THAT MAKES ME BLIND
I'VE BEEN ON THE PLANET FOR 38 YEARS, LIVING IN FEAR
THAT'S A LONG LONG TIME
THAT'S A LONG LONG TIME

I WANT VERY MUCH TO BE IN TOUCH
WITH HOW I FEEL INSIDE
I WANT VERY MUCH TO BE IN TOUCH
WITH HOW I FEEL INSIDE

BUT I'M SO SCRED THE CUPBOARD WILL BE BARE
AND I'M AFRAID TO OPEN UP MY EYES AND LOOK IN THERE
AND I'M SO AFRAID THE COFFERS WILL BE FULL AND I'M FRAID TO FEEL THAT MAGNETIC PULL PULLING ME IN THERE
ALL THE WAY IN THERE

OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA, OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA, OO-OOH, OO LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

BUT I'M AFRAID TO LOSE CONTROL I'M AFRAID TO JUST LET GO AND BE ALIVE
I'M AFRAID TO KNOW WHAT I KNOW TO LET THE RIVER FLOW AND JUMP INSIDE, ALL THE WAY INSIDE

Paul McMahon Woodstock, New York

From a musical family he explored folk, jug, blues and rock quitting music at 20 for art, returning as a punk rocker at 27. Then a long oddysey, solo and band in search of the real real deal; the songs becoming a diary of psychological and spiritual experience; shamanism and ordination as an Interfaith minister.
January 2020 tour of DC Ba Ph & Bk was his first at 69 organized by Goodflavor45 ... more
