John Mayer - Bigger Than My Body lyrics

John Mayer

Bigger Than My Body

This is a call to the colorblind

This is an IOU

Stranded behind a horizon line

Try to be something true

Yes, I'm grounded

Got my wings clipped

I'm surrounded by

All this pavement

Guess I'll circle

While I'm waiting

For my fuse to dry

Chorus:

Someday I'll fly

Someday I'll soar

Someday I'll be

Something much more

Cause I'm bigger than my body

Gives me credit for

Why is it not the time?

What is there more to learn?

I've shed this skin I've been tripping in

And I've never quite returned

Yes, I'm grounded

Got my wings clipped

I'm surrounded by

All this pavement

Guess I'll circle

While I'm waiting

For my fuse to dry

Chorus

Cause I'm bigger than my body now

Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines

And it might be over in a second's time

But I'll gladly go down in a flame

If the flame's what it takes to remember my name

To remember my name, oh

Yes, I'm grounded

Got my wings clipped

I'm surrounded by

All this pavement

Guess I'll circle

While I'm waiting

For my fuse to dry

Chorus

Cause I'm bigger than my body

Bigger than my body

Bigger than my body now
