Neil Young & Promise Of The Real - Almost Always Lyrics

Neil Young & Promise Of The Real Lyrics

"Almost Always"

Lately I been thinkin' 'bout the changing world
Tryin' to fit in pieces of dreams
Just tryin' to add it up, figure out what it means
When a lost planet comes tumblin' home
Does it have to have a beer to break free from what is here
And continue to pick up those pieces of dreams?
And I'm livin' with a gameshow host
Who has to brag and has to boast
'Bout tearing down the things that I hold dear

While the day is with us and the birds are near
Singin' in the sun, baskin' in its light
Has it just risen through the fogs of fear
Can I take a minute to do what's right?
Before that starts me thinkin', distracting me again
Do I have something to say?
Maybe just a feelin' that things are bound to change
Or just that crazy searchlight lightin' someone's way

I'm not gonna work it out right here and right now
I got some things to do, got some calls to make
Hear that crazy little bird callin' out his song
Standin' out on a limb almost too long
Singin' out to his mate, she answers every time
She answers every time, every time
Almost always

Almost always
