Píseň: Wanderlust

Interpret:
R.E.M.
Album:
Around The Sun
looks like I pulled a fast one
looks like I went to town
looks like the world revolves around me
looks like it's falling down.


I thought I'd kicked the traces
I thought the wheels would spin
I thought I'd jumped the fence and bolted
looks like I'm back again


I GOT MY SIGNALS CROSSED.
IT'S OVERWHELMING BECAUSE
I'M ALL ALONE AND I CAN'T GET BACK
GET BACK WITH MY WANDERLUST.


I had to grab a suitcase
I had to change my clothes
I had to run the shower hot
until the water froze


I brushed against confusion
I wanted time to grow
I want the sticks and stones not to throw me
get back to what I know


I GOT MY SIGNALS CROSSED.
IT'S OVERWHELMING BECAUSE
I'M ALL ALONE AND I CAN'T GET BACK
GET BACK WITH MY WANDERLUST.


I'm searching for a greatness
I smear it on my face
I want to bathe in grape must
swim the length of the milky way
I want it to be brilliant
I want it to be sweet
I want to kiss the astronauts
when they salute to me me me me


I GOT MY SIGNALS CROSSED.
IT'S OVERWHELMING BECAUSE
I'M ALL ALONE AND I CAN'T GET BACK
GET BACK WITH MY WANDERLUST.


I GOT MY SIGNALS CROSSED.
IT'S OVERWHELMING BECAUSE
I'M ALL ALONE AND I CAN'T GET BACK
GET BACK WITH MY WANDERLUST.
