Paula Kelley - How Many Times lyrics

How many times must I throw the line before this tiny ship comes crashing to the shore? Tell me, how many times must I say goodbye before I start believing it for sure? When one of you gets word of what I do, it shall be forgone That pretty soon you all will know the tune I've been screaming from the gutter for so long And pretty blue The sky from which you flew I saw you dive Over time Filled with circles in my mind How many times must I throw the line before this tiny ship comes crashing to the shore? Tell me, how many times must I say goodbye before I start believing it for sure? I misconstrue so much, I see right through love's great rewards I make things up and blur the lines and such that telling me won't matter anymore Through dizzy blue, the ground comes into view I'm still alive Despite time All the circles in my mind How many times must I throw the line before this tiny ship comes crashing to the shore? Tell me, how many times must I say goodbye before I lose my fear of thinking? I'm too late to hear it anymore Before the wind Before the oxygen that k**s us from within This world had lost its way The murmuring decay just fills our heads Tell me how I misconstrue so much I never knew I caused your dive Over time Filled with circles in my mind
