Jimi Thing Songtext
von Dave Matthews

Lately, I′ve been feeling low
Remedy is what I'm seeking
I take a taste of what′s below
Come away to something better

What I want is what I've not got
But what I need is all around me
Reaching, searching, never stop
And I'll say

If you could keep me floating just for a while
′Til I get to the end of this tunnel, oh Jimi
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I′ll get back to you


Sometime a Jimi thing slide my way
Keep me swinging
I'd like to show you what′s inside
I shouldn't care if you don′t like it
Brother chaos rules all about
Well, sometimes I walk there
Sometimes, I take a bus there
Shouldn't care, I shouldn′t care, bereaved as I'm feeling

The day is gone, I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
I take a drink, sit back, relax
Smoke my mind, make me feel better for a small time

What I want is what I′ve not got
And what I need is all around me
Reaching, searching, never stop
And I′ll say

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel, oh Jimi
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I′ll get back to you


Sometime I take a Jimi Thing
Just to keep me swinging
I'd like to show you what′s inside
But that's unclear if you don′t like it
Brother chaos rules all about
But sometimes I walk there
Yes God knows sometimes, I take a bus there
Shouldn't care, I shouldn't care, bereaved as I′m feeling

Lately, I′ve been feeling low
Remedy is what I'm looking for, cooking for
So I take a taste of what′s below
Come away

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel, oh Jimi
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I′ll get back to you something better

Sometime I take a Jimi Thing
Just to keep me swinging
I'd like to show you what′s inside
But I shouldn't care if you don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes I walk there
Struggle sometimes, I take a bus there
Shouldn′t care, I shouldn′t care, bereaved as I'm feeling
