The Patient Ferris Wheel

(albüm: The '59 Sound - 2008)

Not tonight, not tonight
Honey I, am on fire
I can't feel a single thing but the weight of the wires

Cracking electric light
Remember baby, we were a stone
And we would sleep where we're falling

We would fight about it (fight about it)
We'd fight about it (fight about it)
Then we laughed about it (laughed about it)
And we'd ride on, ride on
Ferris wheel lights on

I'd never felt so strange
Standing in the Jersey rain
Thinking about what an old man said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

I never felt so strange
Standing in the pounding rain
Thinking about what my mother once said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

N-n-not tonight, not tonight
Honey I, am on fire
If we don't come through, they're gonna bury us alive

In this great abyss
Of just what might have been
Where we can take a seat at the bar with the other broken heroes

Where they talk about it (talk about it)
Just talk about it (talk about it)
And do nothing 'bout it (nothing 'bout it)
Right on, right on
Ferris wheel lights on

I'd never felt so strange
Standing in the Jersey rain
Thinking about what an old man said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

I'd never felt so strange
Standing in the pounding rain
Thinking about what my mother once said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

I'd never felt so strange
Standing in the Jersey rain
Thinking about what Waging Matty said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

Maybe I should call me an ambulance

I'd never felt so strange
Standing in the Jersey rain
Thinking about what an old man said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

I'd never felt so strange
Standing in the pounding rain
Thinking about what my mama always said
Maybe I should call me an ambulance

Carnival lights
4th of July
Boardwalk talks
In the dead of night

Always made you smile
Always made you smile
Always made you smile
