CONOR OBERST I GOTTA REASON LYRICS

you know a lot can happen after everybody falls asleep
ask the forest fire, ask the cop walking on the beat
and do right by them, work a little in your dreams
don't let time rob you, hold onto your memories
in the glass houses, in the pages of the rolling stone
i get a sick feeling, like i'm rocking in a little boat
hear the big church bell, it's ringing like a mobile phone
such a long sunday drive, and i'm taking it all alone

i wanna belong to a reason
and cut a new key to the kingdom
and if anybody asks me, say i wanna belong
if anybody asks me, say that it won't take long
if anybody asks me, say i'm gonna get this done
if anybody asks me, say i got a reason

in the last harddrive in the satellites that kick and spin
you'll find that old footage so everything can live again
pretty pink roses, the ostrich and the elephant
it's the next noah's ark, everything's gotta fit
in the creased pages of a letter i've been trying to send
to a young widow who is desperate for some kind of friend
you'll find a long list of eligible, handsome men
who wanna lay with her, upon the table of the elements

they're gonna hold strong to a reason
and cut a new key to the kingdom
and if anybody asks them, say they're gonna belong
and if anybody asks them, say that it won't take long now
and if anybody asks them, say they're gonna get this done
and if anybody asks them, say they've got a reason
