lyrics
two different nights
two different hearts
each one wants more than the other
i can't stand up
i can't duck down
i wonder why i even bother
i lost perspective
somewhere along the line
and i think i'm going out of my mind
i'm alone now
like it has to be
though isolation really gets me down
i'm alone now
like i want to be
it's the only way i'll sort things out
i got lost in love somehow
now the only way to get back out
is to take it from the top
"one of these days,"
my father told me,
"they'll give you more than you can stand."
i used to laugh
when he used to scold me
he said, "go on now
but one day you'll understand."
if it was now i'd take it all back
if they'd let me i'd erase my tracks
i'm alone now...
two different hearts
each one wants more than the other
i can't stand up
i can't duck down
i wonder why i even bother
i lost perspective
somewhere along the line
and i think i'm going out of my mind
i'm alone now
like it has to be
though isolation really gets me down
i'm alone now
like i want to be
it's the only way i'll sort things out
i got lost in love somehow
now the only way to get back out
is to take it from the top
"one of these days,"
my father told me,
"they'll give you more than you can stand."
i used to laugh
when he used to scold me
he said, "go on now
but one day you'll understand."
if it was now i'd take it all back
if they'd let me i'd erase my tracks
i'm alone now...

about
Paul Tabachneck New York
I started doing music in Pittsburgh, fronting the folk-rock band Stone Soup, the dark-pop band Dead Pressed Flowers, and the Power Pop band Manpig aka Everybody Wins. After that, I moved to New York, mostly playing solo and busking a lot. Now I live in CT and play in my home office because everything is bad and no one can go out. See me Wednesdays at 7:30 at facebook.com/paultab! ... more
