Want Too Much - Joe Henry

I want too much and I want you

When I hope I woke, I want too much

When you try to save yourself

And I hope you don’t, I want too much

In dreams I fly above the barn

With goats and violins, I want too much

The palest girl raises her arms

Waving from the fence, I want too much

And even now, even now, even now

I want no more and I want too much

I want the lost forgotten miles

To swallow up your street, I want too much

Raining smoke and dandelions

And silver at my feet, I want too much

But I want the phantom at the door

To put his hand in mine and I want too much

I want you to pull me down

And cover me with vines, I want too much

And even now, even now, even now

I want no more and I want too much

I want too much

Your kiss left me a bloodied mess

And a trail behind, I want too much

And if you fall then I confess

Better you this time and I want too much

And even now, even now, even now

I want no more, I want no more

And even now, even now

I want no more and I want too much

I want too much

I want too much

And I want too much
