I Can Hear Ray

(albüm: Good Feeling - 2012)

Elevator's broke again
Guess I'll have to climb
Seven flights to your front door
Baby I don't mind

Say hello to Mister Johnson on the second floor
Sitting with a pup in his hand
He'll be there all day
Step over the tabby cat

Never gonna budge
Lying there like it owns the place and I guess it kinda does
Tap my fingers on a curl of the old hand rail
Footsteps keeping it tight
There's something in the air

I can hear Ray Charles
Drifting down the stairwell
And I'm almost home

Pulling me higher
The feeling's so familiar
Like it's calling my name
And I can hardly wait
When I hear Ray

It's the way you get your temper up
When you bring the toast
Ain't it funny how the little things
Are what you miss the most

My heart 's racing when I'm nearly there jumping stairs
One, two, three at a time
From the fourth floor
So clear in my ear

I can hear Ray Charles
Drifting down the stairwell
And I'm almost home

Pulling me higher
The feeling's so familiar
Like it's calling my name

And yeah, it's the voice that I remember
When we said we'd be together for always
And now, as the melody surrounds me
I feel your arms around me like I've never been away

And I can hear Ray
And I'm almost home
Pulling me higher

I can hear Ray Charles
Drifting down the stairwell
And I'm almost home

Pulling me higher
The feeling's so familiar
Like it's calling my name
And I can hardly wait
When I hear Ray

I'm almost home
I can hear Ray
Ray Charles
