"Song From An American Movie, Pt. 2" lyrics

"Song From An American Movie, Pt. 2"

Sometimes I get to a point where
I don't give a damn about
Anything...anymore

Sometimes I get to a point where
I feel numb and I just don't care

Sometimes I feel like I just
Don't care

I sit in my car
And listen to the radio

I think about the past
And it seems so long ago

I know the pain
Is slowly going to fade

This life is going to get better
(Things are going to be better)

I wait until
My ex-wife has gone away

I walk around the house
Getting lost inside the old day

I see a picture where
Everybody's smiling

I know
I got to keep it on the inside

I want to get lost
From my life sometimes

Sit on the side
And watch the world go by

I want to get lost
And I don't know why

Sometimes I want to get lost
And I don't know why

(Sometimes I want to get lost
And dream for a while)

Waiting for my little girl
Waiting on the school bus

We're going to the movies
Yeah just the two of us

Sit inside the dark and dream
For awhile

Our life is going to get better
(Yeah it's going to be better)

I wake up weird
In the middle of the night

I walk the floor
Until my mind gets right

I think about the past
And it makes me want to cry

I know
I got to keep it on the inside

I want to get lost
From my life sometimes

Sit on the side
And watch the world go by

I want to get lost in the dark
And dream for awhile

Just sit inside a dark room
And dream for awhile

The only thing that ever makes
Sense to me
Is the words to a song from
An American movie

The only thing that ever made
Sense in my life
Is the sound of my
Little girl laughing
Alive and happy in
The summertime

I am just like everyone I know

I am afraid of things that I
Don't know

I am afraid of ever really
Being alone

I want to find myself a brand
New heart

I want to find a girl
And make a brand new start

I want to find a girl and get lost
In the dark

The only thing that ever makes
Sense to me
Is the words to a song from
An American movie

The only thing that ever made
Sense in my life
Is the sound of my
Little girl laughing
Through the window of a
Summer night

I sit alone in the backyard
Wishing I could be inside

Just the sound of my
Little girl laughing
Makes me happy just to be alive

Sometimes I am happy
Just to be alive
