A Day In The Life (Out-take) (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

A DAY IN THE LIFE (OUT-TAKE):
*The song is the last minute and 7 seconds of Everyday Goodbyes and is a cover of the song by The Beatles.

(Laugh)
Alright...
I read the news today, oh boy...
About a lucky man who made the grade...
(Messes up)
(Laughs)
Fucking A, man...
I told you I was gonna run out of rhythm...
I read the news today, oh boy...
About a lucky man who made the grade...
And though the news was rather sad...

Everyday Goodbyes (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

EVERYDAY GOODBYES:
She sits all alone reading books and drinking wine...
Admires all the cracks by the doorway...
She tries to look happy but she's slowly running out of smiles...
Gracefully wasting away...

(Chorus)
Who is gonna make the birds sing?...
Who is gonna be her everything?...
Everyday goodbyes......

She foolishly tries to convince herself that she'll be fine...
She blows all her kisses to no one...
As the phone rings again, she just closes her eyes...
She covers her ears and screams "PLEASE NOT TODAY!".....

(Chorus)
Who is gonna make the birds sing?...
Who is gonna be her everything?...
Everyday goodbyes....

She cries and then she sighs...
And gets down on her knees yelling "I don't believe what has happened to me!"...
She cries and then she sighs
And gets down on her knees yelling "I don't believe what has happened to me!"....

(Chorus)
Who is gonna make the birds sing?....
Who is gonna be her everything?.....
Everyday goodbyes....
Who is gonna make the birds sing?....
Who is gonna be her everything?.....
Everyday goodbyes....










As Things Collide (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

AS THINGS COLLIDE:
You have this way of dipping in and out of sight as things collide...
Bridges burning softly in the night...   
And you have this way of falling in and out of time as it goes by...   
Passing silently with no goodbye...   
  
And I've spoken with all the other angels...
They don't know what to do....
And I agree with them whole-heartedly, I do.... 
  
Telegram came today from a friend...  
Saying, "Where in the hell have you been?.. 
Where are you going?"... 
I said, "I don't know, does the loneliness show?...  
And if so does it ever end?"...  
And I've spoken with all the other angels...
They don't know what to do....   
And I agree with them whole-heartedly, I do....

You have this way of meaning everything and nothing to me at the same time.... 
Returning my hellos with goodbyes... 
And I've spoken with all the other angels...   
They don't know what to do.... 

And I agree with them whole-heartedly, I do....

And I've spoken with all the other angels...
They don't know what to do....
And I agree with them whole-heartedly, I do....

And I've spoken with all the other angels...
They don't know what to do....
And I agree with them whole-heartedly, I do....
 













 


The Kid With Velvet Eyes (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

THE KID WITH VELVET EYES:
Every day, people sway...
Softly lulling me to sleep...
I look the other way...
But I still can't look too deep...
I think I'll fall asleep...
I think I'll fall asleep...

(Chorus)
So call up and tell him that you will survive...
Good looking kid with the velvet eyes...
You and me and everything's gonna be fine...

Every night, people fight...
Gently lulling me to sleep...
What gives me the right?..
To waste away and weep...
I think I'll turn away...
There's nothing left to say...

(Chorus)
So call up and tell him that you will survive...
Good looking kid with the velvet eyes...
You and me and everything's gonna be fine....
So you wanna have everything your heart desires....
There's a fist full of people with their hearts on fire...
Make your way on up to the front of the line.......

Get out of my way......
I'm here now to stay.....
Get out of my way.....
I'm here now to stay.....

(Chorus)
So call up and tell him that you will survive...
Good looking kid with the velvet eyes...
You and me and everything's gonna be fine....
So you wanna have everything your heart desires....
There's a fist full of people with their hearts on fire...
Make your way on up to the front of the line.......












Not Falling Apart (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

NOT FALLING APART:
(Chorus)
Hold on, float on
We're on our way
I'm not falling apart....

(Chorus)
Hold on, float on
We're on our way
I'm not falling apart....

I don't mind
Falling in the water
No ever notices me
And I play under the waves
I don't mind
Falling in the water
No ever notices me
And I play under the waves

I'm not falling apart....
Not falling apart....
Not falling apart....
Not falling apart....
Not falling apart....
 

Good at Being Gone (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers


GOOD AT BEING GONE:
I've taken time
To think about the words I've said
And what they mean...
And I've realized that having you is 
Just like having everything...

(Chorus)
But when I see you dancing there...
I get up and throw my hands in the air...
When I've nowhere else to roam...
I slowly start to think about coming home....

It's been so long...
It seems the only things I know are far from home...
Where did I go?...
It seems sometimes I'm only good at being gone...

(Chorus)
But when I see you dancing there...
I get up and throw my hands in the air...
when I've nowhere else to roam...
I slowly start to think about coming home...

(Chorus)
But when I see you standing there...
I get up and throw my hands in the air...
When I've nowhere else to roam...
I slowly start to think about coming home...

When I've nowhere else to roam...
I slowly start to think about coming home....
Home...... home.......
When I've nowhere else to roam....
I slowly start to think about coming home.......

The Great Getaway (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

THE GREAT GETAWAY:
As we kicked around downtown 
Waiting for the sun to rise
We watched the clouds
Take the shape of a Chevrolet
And the way that I'm feeling is the 
Color of my lover's eyes
She caught me lookin' the other way
Thinkin' finally of our better days

(Chorus)
As she climbs her way
Up to the top of me
We look down on everyone
And we proclaim that we
Don't know how long we'll be
As we kiss the world goodbye
Kiss the world goodbye

And we'll be gone
Into the sky and out of our minds
Watch the faces and buildings and 
Cars getting smaller with time
Wish us luck

Trippin' on a flat tire
Dial up the triple A
Time is running out for our escape
So much for that Chevrolet
Eyes shut tight as we venture to another place
As we listen to the music play
I can't remember what I had to say

(Chorus) 
As she climbs her way
Up to the top of me
We look down on everyone
And we proclaim that we
Don't know how long we'll be
As we kiss the world goodbye
Kiss the world goodbye

And we'll be gone
Into the sky and out of our minds
Watch the faces and buildings and 
Cars getting smaller with time
Wish us luck

As she climbs her way
Up to the top of me
We look down on everyone
And we proclaim that we
Don't know how long we'll be
As we kiss the world goodbye
Kiss the world goodbye
Kiss the world goodbye

Simple Kind of Lovely (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

SIMPLE KIND OF LOVELY:
Leanin' on a tree trunk
Thinkin' all the same junk
Fallin' in and out of a dream
Back and forth I'm swaying
I'm contemplating staying
Laying and decaying when I know I must leave

(Chorus)
Where do I aim when I shoot the breeze
How do I calm myself at times like these
It's just a simple kind of lovely
And the thought is just a novelty

You can spend the whole time
Danglin' from a grape vine
Who's standing underneath you when they cut you free
What about when the sun leaves
And what about all those bad dreams
Who will walk you back into reality

(Chorus)
I wish things could be like this everyday
but I know that I could never live this way
it's just a simple kind of lovely and the memories will be okay

(Chorus)
I wish things could be like this everyday
But I know that I could never live this way
It was just a simple kind of lovely and the memories will be okay
It was just a simple kind of lovely and the memories will be okay
The memories will be okay....
The memories will be okay.....
The memories will be okay....

The Fog (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

THE FOG:
Here in this town they have all got the blues
As the paper boy takes off without any news
Angels have wings you can feel free to use
The corner store drugs you can freely abuse

And I’m yelling and screaming cause baby you’re driving me crazy

So life on your own has been vacant and cold
Everyone’s getting somewhere and you’re getting old
Career opportunities they all have been sold
Along with your body and most of your soul

(Chorus)
And I’m yelling and screaming cause baby you’re driving me crazy
If I could spare more remorse from my emptied out pores I would maybe
Cause the fog’s getting thicker the world’s spinning fast
The chaos is building, it’s going too last
And it’s so hard to see and you’re so hard to find
The days when I think I am losing my mind

So keep painting pictures of beautiful scenes
Striking the canvas with deep blues and greens
When you start frowning they think you’re obscene
As you work overtime to make sure they can dream

I’m yelling and screaming cause baby you’re driving me crazy
If I could spare more remorse from my emptied out pores I would maybe
Cause the fog’s getting thicker the world’s spinning fast
The chaos is building, it’s going too last
And it’s so hard to see and you’re so hard to find
The days when I think I am losing my mind

And we yell and we scream
As the fog’s getting thicker the world’s spinning fast
The chaos is building, it’s going to last
And it’s so hard to see and you’re so hard to find
The days when I think I am losing my mind

And the fog’s getting thicker the world’s spinning fast
The chaos is building, it’s going to last
And it’s so hard to see and you’re so hard to find
The days when I think I am losing my mind

If You Only Knew (LYRICS) by Kara's Flowers

IF YOU ONLY KNEW:
I wake up
Thoughts of you
Tattooed to my mind
As I wonder
What to wear
What to eat
Who to be
Will I see you again

And as my car breaks down
I shake my head and say
What a day

(Chorus)
If you only knew
What I went through just to get to you
I'm hanging from you
And I'll hold on if you want me to

Every bus, every train,
Ever cab, every lane is JAMMED
So I looked to the sky
And I reached for the planes with my hands

If all my days go wrong
I'll think about last night
It went right

(Chorus)
If you only knew
What I went through just to get to you
I'm hanging from you
And I'll hold on if you want me to

(Chorus)
If you only knew
What I went through just to get to you
I'm swinging from you
And there's nothing I would rather do
