"Mercury On Parade" lyrics

"Mercury On Parade"

In the backyard with our pup
Saw her little ears perk right on up
Heard you from the river bend
Cracking jokes with your best friend
See you wave and pour a cup
But I don't want to interrupt
I'd rather sit down, shut up and listen to you laugh

All I wanna do is keep out of the way
Sit down, kick back and listen to you laugh
You've put the light years in between
All the dark clouds in my mind
So many faces I've loved and seen
But you're the only spaceship flying
Yeah I want you so damn much
I still blush when you call me mine
So I'll just sit down, kick back and listen to you laugh

All I wanna do
Is keep out of the way
Sit down, kick back and listen to you laugh

Is it her Virgo Sun
Or her Leo rising
Is Mercury on parade
No It's her sunset laughter on my horizon
Let's me know that I've got it made

Because I was raised in a house of prayer
And I hear God ringing through the air
Every time I sit down, shut up and listen to her laugh

All I wanna do, is keep out of the way
Sit down, kick back and listen to you laugh
All I wanna do, is keep out of the way
Sit down, shut up and listen
Sit down, kick back and listen
Sit down, tune in, and listen
