I Can’t Explain Songtext
von Surfer Blood

On a new year′s eve
Celebrations full of life
At a loss for words
And eye contact throughout the night

Lost in a game we play
Faces trying to look sincere
But it's alright tonight
If I never stray too far from here

I can′t explain, I can't explain
I can't explain, I can′t explain

We′re a rare isotope
Not commonly found in cities like these
Ordinary words on
Methylenedioxyametamphetamine

You're the girl of my dreams
Trapped within my false awakenings
Forgotten yet unsure
Reoccuring first meeting


If we′re nothing (open your, open your)
Disguised as something (open your, open your)
I can almost taste your lips (open your, open your)
Our eyes close in full eclipse (open your, open your)
Your taste is sour (open your, open your)
With bitter powder (open your, open your)
If I could open your mind (open your, open your)
And hold me inside (open your, open your)

And open your mind
(I can't explain, I can′t explain)
And open your mind
(You're the only one, girl, you′re the only one girl)
And open your mind
(I can't explain, I can't explain)
And open your mind
(You′re the only one, girl, you′re the only one girl)

And open your mind
(I can't explain, I can′t explain)
And open your mind
(You're the only one, girl, you′re the only one girl)
And open your mind
(I can't explain, I can′t explain)
And open your mind
(You're the only one, girl, you're the only one girl)


And open your mind
(I can′t explain, I can′t explain)
And open your mind
(You're the only one, girl, you′re the only one girl)
And open your mind
(I can't explain, I can′t explain)
And open your mind
(You're the only one, girl, you′re the only one girl)

I can't explain, I can't explain
I can′t explain, I can′t explain
I can't explain, I can′t explain
I can't explain, I can′t explain
I can't explain, I can′t explain
I can't explain, I can't explain
I can′t explain, I can′t explain
