Kalamazoo Lyrics
Ben Folds
Running my mouth
Ran up a tab and all the way back to kalamazoo
All the way back home
I was surely stoned, now i'm sober in my yard
Can you believe i was there?
Can you believe i've been anywhere else?
There was a time, almost forgot, we had been drifting all the way to kalamazoo
And i said that i loved you too
All the way back home
There's a little joke, i just made up
How many of me would it take to screw up your life?
One to settle down, one to turn you around
Now i'm sober in my yard
I would say you had to be there, now i regret that you're still there
Seems like you've been frozen, frozen there in time
Waving your goodbyes
Up to the sky
You place on the map has faded away
Used to be lost in more than one way
Kalamazoo, don't you know that i've been there too
And it'd put your mind more at ease
If you'd say those words of release
All the way back home
