Hanging Out

(album: The Joy Of Music - 2022)

Feels like everyone I know is suddenly a TV show
Living in some gossip magazine
Lately I've tried but I can't find it in my heart to chase those lights
Does that mean something's wrong with me?

Cause I've been kinda hanging out
Living some life you don't write songs about, yeah
Yeah took a break from moving mountains
Yeah I'm finally slowing down some
No moving, no shaking
Been fine with just hanging out

Lately I've been going for runs
And watching my daughter eat her lunch
Listening through the Beatles catalogue
What does it mean to catch your dreams if you can't sit alone
And think without your thoughts all going wrong

So I've been kinda hanging out
Living some life you don't write songs about
Like you remember in that story how
Jules Verne went 20K leagues down
That's how low I've been laying
Just kinda been hanging out
I've been kinda hanging out
Just been kinda
Just been kinda hanging out
Ooh, I've been kinda hanging out

I just realized I've spent my whole life
Thinking I was nothing if I wasn't doing everything just right
For the first time since I've been a kid
When I close my eyes
I can sleep at night

I've been kinda hanging out
Got new ideas about the good life now
Yeah took a break from moving mountains
Yeah I'm finally slowing down some
No moving, no shaking
Just kinda been hanging
No moving, no shaking
Been fine with just hanging out
