Woke up to this...
John Mayer - Bigger Than My Body
This is a call to the color-blind
This is an IOU
I'm stranded behind a horizon line
Tried to be something true
Yes, I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded (by)
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
For my fears to dry
Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be something much more
Cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for
Why is it not the time?
What is there more to learn?
I've shed this skin that I've been trippin' in
And I've never quite returned
Yes, I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded (by)
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
For my fears to dry
Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be something much more
Cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for
Cause I'm bigger than my body now
Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines
And it might be over in a second's time
But I'll glady go down in a flame
If the flame's what it takes to remember my name
Yes, I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded (by)
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
For my fears to dry
Wait for my fears to dry
Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be something much more
Cause I'm bigger than my body
I'm bigger than my body
I'm bigger than my body now
and this radio interview continues to ask John Mayer what the real meaning of the song is... He replies: It doesn't have any meaning to it. Actually, I want to be the "Pour Some Sugar On Me" of our times. ...Pooour some sugar on me..in the name of love!...poour some sugar on me..." I damn near pissed maself.
