lyrics

Now what is this feeling I know you
from long ago, from deep in the past
I don’t know why, why I trust you completely
don’t question it, the bottle is empty

Now what is this club closing early
the fog machines and lasers swirling
It’s halloween, I’m sorry for screaming
but I’m afraid I’ve scared you completely

Now what is this blizzard in April
I’m underdressed as usual
and we’re cheating death, buying time from the winter
it’s house arrest, no stopping for dinner

Now what is this microphone working
can’t hear myself but cameras are rolling
and there’s the cue, my heart it beats so hard
I look for you and suddenly fall

Now what is this robin you rescued
it’s broken wing not broken long
We search the room someone yells from the garden
The orange cat finished what he started

Now what is this skidding of tires
I hold my breath and you’re running fast
as the SUV smashes into the sidewalk
and 911 won’t answer the call

Now what is this Hollywood ghost town
a shootout scene, no actors at all
Last night I dreamed you and I were immortal
it’s no big deal, this new kind of normal
