Motorcycle Drive By Songtext
von Third Eye Blind

Summer time and the wind is blowin′ outside in lower Chelsea
And I don't know what I′m doing in this city
The sun is always in my eyes
It crashes through the windows and I'm sleeping on the couch
When I came to visit you
That's when I knew that I could never have you
I knew that before you did
Still I′m the one who′s stupid

And there's this burning
Like there′s always been
I've never been so alone
And I′ve never been so alive


Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes and you don't mind, you smile
And say the world it doesn′t fit with you
I don't believe you, you're so serene
Careening through the universe, your axis on a tilt
You′re guiltless and free, I hope you take a piece of me with you
And there′s things I would like to do that you don't believe in
I would like to build something
But you′ll never see it happen

And there's this burnin′
Like there's always been
I′ve never been so alone
And I've, I've never been so alive

And there′s this burning
There is this burning

Where′s the soul, I wanna know
New York City's evil
The surface is everything but I could never do that
Someone would see through that
And this is the last time, we′ll be friends again
And I'll get over you, you′ll wonder who I am

And there's this burning
Just like there′s always been
I've never been so alone, alone
And I've and I′ve, I′ve never been so alive

So alive


I go home to the coast, it starts to rain
I paddle out on the water alone
Taste the salt and taste the pain
I'm not thinking of you again
Summer dies and swells rise
The sun goes down in my eyes
See this rolling wave darkly coming
To take me home

And I′ve never been so alone
And I've never been so alive
