Jewels Lyrics

Hosing the yard, the dogs recoil

The water is not water, it's the longest sound in the world

They could go, the gate is open wide

But they'd rather keep me in sight

Routine surrounds the chaos moving in your eye

Like stillness around a flickering candle light

I listen to the words pour through

The hole of your brain, like the rain

Yeah they strike me, randomly, wherever I go

Catch me off guard sometimes just staring at the lines of the road

Routine surrounds the chaos moving in your eye

Like stillness around a flickering candle light

Is it really real this time?

Is it really real?

Or is life pulling my leg again?

I like the wry sidewalk candy wrappers

That always match the tiny jewel inside of flowers

And you are one green jewel floating in my eye

We like to play but never win the staring contest against

The sky surrounding everything all of the time

Like the sky is the sky, and you're everything in my life

Is it really real this time?

Is it really real?

Or is life pulling my leg again?
