lyrics

Strange Anticipation

Love is in the daylight
Sun fills up the room
Love is like a hazy lazy afternoon
It can take you back
Or it can leave you all too soon

You’re older now baby
It’s time you ought to help yourself
You may want to blame somebody
But there’s really no one else

You’re a little undecided
It’s easy now to make you cry
There’s a longing in the distance
And a flicker in your eye

And all these doubts you had this morning
They’re only telling you more lies
The louder that they call you
The more you realize

The headlights on the highway
The rhythm of the road
The blues is what they’re playing on the late night radio
They can take you back
Or they can lay you way down low

Yes you’re older now baby
You’re a thousand miles against your will
There’s a moral to your story
But you know you love her still


And all these changes in the mirror
It hard enough to make you smile
But if anyone, if anyone can do it
You ought to let her stay a while

Whoa oh oh…

There’s calling in the moonlight
There’s a calm out on the sea
There’s a strange anticipation that’s falling over me
