Sideways Songtext
von Melissa Ferrick

I′m five states away, calling to tell you
That I do not feel connected
To the moon or the stars, or my soul or my heart
Oh, I feel like a body of perpetual motion

I'm waiting for an answer, listening for hope
And I′m just tryna get out
Of my thoughts that seem to just outthink themselves
I swear I'm staying away from pharmacy shelves

So when I get the nonstop thinking about everything that's wrong
You are there, you remind me to try to find a piece in it all
But all I wanna do is come home
And lay down with you sideways


So put me back inside my body, turn my face with your hands
Come on, girl, show me what you got
And I will tell you again about the first time I saw you
And how you turned my heart back on

So when I get the nonstop thinking about everything that′s wrong
You are there, you remind me to try to find a piece in it all
But all I wanna do is come home
And lay down with you sideways

And I don′t know why I don't think I know what I′m doing
I call you, ask you to talk me down
Oh, why I doubt the very fact that you love me a little more?
'Cause I′m out here tryna sing it out
Oh, I'm tryna sing it out
I′m tryna sing it out

So when I get the nonstop thinking about everything that's wrong
You are there, you remind me to try to find a piece in it all
But all I wanna do is come home
And lay down with you sideways
I wanna lay down with you sideways
