I wanted to write a song called Cosmic I wanted to get a view of the earth I wanted to be a lonesome cowboy I wanted to love you till it hurt I wanted the right to misbehave To say she ain't my grave I put these things aside for years Till laughter took the place of tears It's like I was asleep yet now I'm here I'm here I wanted to take your place just sometimes To know the things you know and why you did the things you do To say no one time and believe it Oh I wanted so much but only needed you Wasn't it just my choice to make the bed in which I lay I put these things aside for years Till laughter took the place of tears It's like I was asleep yet now I'm here I'm here I wanted to be able to talk without the interruption I wanted to sing exotic words I wanted to find a way to put the end to all of my destruction I wanted to re know what I was worth But wasn't it just my choice to make the bed in which I lay I put these things aside for years Till laughter took the place of tears It's like I was asleep yet now I'm here it's cosmic I'm here it's cosmic
