Soul Asylum

Soul Asylum - Black And Blue lyrics

I got something special to show you

But I suppose you've seen it all before

There's one thing I'm trying to tell you

But then again, you've heard it all before

I survived another week just like the one before,

When everything you wanted somehow leaves you wanting more

And I looked beneath the carpet behind each and every door,

Trying to find you something like you've never had before

And it seems we're just beginners

No previous experience at all

Just the last original sinners

And if you need me just be sure to call

And they tell you which way not to go and so you go that way

One child plays with ??, another throws it away

Like a kite without string ?? do anything

I'm trying to take you someplace you've never been before

I see something new in each and every moon

From your old, old hat to your blown-out shoes

It's tried and true, and it's all I do

And I hope it's not all the same to you

The old and new, they get mistaken all the time

Is there something I've never seen before

No, just a brand new shine

Now they're cranking 'em out by the millions

They look and act exactly just the same

And each one's one in a million

And each has got its own elusive game

It's the same old dusty atmosphere just like the other place

I see something familiar in each and every face

Seems to me I've seen you, been here, said this once before

I'm trying to take you someplace you've never been before

I see something new in each and every moon

From your old, old hat to a ?? out ??

When I dropped it and broke it, I thought of you

And I hope it's not all the same to you

And the old and new, they get mistaken all the time

Is there something I've never seen before
