free fall

She's a good girl, loves her mama 
Loves Jesus and America too  
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis 
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
 
 
 
It's a long day living in Reseda 
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard  
And I'm a bad boy 'cause I don't even miss her 
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

 
 
And I'm free, free fallin'  
Yeah, I'm free, free fallin'

 
 
And all the vampires walkin' through the valley  
Move west down Ventura Boulevard  
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows  
And the good girls are home with broken hearts

 
 
And I'm free, free fallin'  
Yeah, I'm free, free fallin'

 
 
I wanna glide down over Mulholland 
I wanna write her name in the sky 
I'm gonna free fall out into nothin'  
Gonna leave this world for a while

 
 
And I'm free, free fallin' 
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

glorious

There are times when you might feel aimless
And can’t see the places where you belong
But you will find that there is a purpose
It’s been there within you all along
And when you’re near it
You can almost hear it

It’s like a symphony just keep listening
And pretty soon you’ll start to figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece and there are melodies
In each one of us, oh, it’s glorious
You will know how to let it ring out
As you discover who you are
Others around you will start to wake up
To the sounds that are in their hearts
It’s so amazing
What we’re all creating

It’s like a symphony just keep listening
And pretty soon you’ll start to figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece and there are melodies
In each one of us, oh, it’s glorious
And as you feel, the notes build, you will see

It’s like a symphony just keep listening
And pretty soon you’ll start to figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece and there are melodies
In each one of us, oh, it’s glorious
He knew why he wanted to kiss her. Because she was beautiful. And before that, because she was kind. And before that, because she was smart and funny. Because she was exactly the right kind of smart and funny. Because he could imagine taking a long trip with her without ever getting bored. Because whenever he saw something new and interesting, or new and ridiculous, he always wondered what she’d have to say about it—how many stars she’d give it and why.
