The Boss Bossa Nova - Sivert Høyem
Loud noises from the road
They don't scare me anymore
But I miss the white corridors
At the place where we lived before
And in our very best get up
We stepped down into the world
This city's soul was still up for grabs
For thos who'd fly across town in a taxi cab
To fly across town in a taxi cab
To fly across town in a taxi cab
These days I'm in the bubble
I'm living what they call a quiet life
I do no more than what's expected of me
And I hope I will suffice
So take another soft pillow
Take your pill and drift away
This really is a good life on the whole
And who am I to crave so much more
It really makes no sense at all
I wasn't always I wasn't always this way
I wasn't always I wasn't always this way
I was always on the outside
Trying to weazle my way in
But I was always meant to make my home
Outside of everything
You when you were new
Nothing would taste as good as you
When you were new
I thought it would be a breakthrough
How could it ever go wrong
A new experience is long overdue
It was the heady high I always aimed for
And all I told you then was true
That I could hide myself in you
Out of love or laziness
Now if nothing else then that's what I'm gonna do
I take another soft pillow
I take my pill and then I drift away
To wake brain dead at the break of day
I used to have so much to say
It seems I've said it all
I wasn't always I wasn't always this way
I wasn't always I wasn't always this way
I wasn't always I wasn't always this way
I wasn't always I wasn't always this way
