I wanted to write a song called ′Cosmic′
I wanted to get a view of the earth
I wanted to be a lonesome cowboy
I wanted to love you till it hurt

I wanted the right to misbehave
To say she ain′t my crave

I put these things aside for years
′Til laughter took the place of tears
It′s like I was asleep yet now I′m here
I′m here

I wanted to take your place just sometimes
To know the things you know and why you did the things you do
To say ′no′ one time and believe it
Oh I wanted so much but only needed you

Wasn′t it just my choice to make?
The bed in which I lay

I put these things aside for years
′Til laughter took the place of tears
It′s like I was asleep yet now I′m here
I′m here

I wanted to be able to talk without the interruption
I wanted to sing exotic words
I wanted to find a way to put the end to all of my destruction
I wanted to re-know what I was worth

But wasn′t it just my choice to make?
The bed in which I lay

I put these things aside for years
′Til laughter took the place of tears
It′s like I was asleep yet now I′m here
I′m here
I′m here (it′s cosmic)
