new view

c. 2005, new view music


i'm thoroughly lost in the commotion of emotion
especially in the moment of truth
contemplating complicated circumstances
of so many no-name romances
i've always thought that i shouldfollow my own rules
and not fall too hard too soon

but it's an over-rated destiny
and i've wasted too much energy

'cause i used to be set to be
playin' the field
but the grass is as green as it gets
next to you
and you shed the light
on my new view

and i'm all good
once i understood
where i stood
i'm all good

i'm just a busted up cracker jack prize
livin' in stereo in a look-alike world
i realize one's enough
i couldn't handle more than that
i'll let your diamond smile shine awhile

maybe i should take a second look at my priorities
and see what she sees in all of her magazines

'cause i used to be set to be
playin' the field
but the grass is as green as it gets
next to you
and you shed the light
on my new view

and i'm all good
once i understood
where i stood
i'm all good

we never get a do-over
when we're alone watching the rising moon
or the sun shine on a june afternoon
counting the stars at the drop of a hat
i need someone who can do all that

'cause i used to be set to be
playin' the field
but the grass is as green as it gets
next to you
and you shed the light
on my new view

and i'm all good
and i hope you're all good
so we can be all good
'cause i'm finally all good
and i know you've been waiting
and i've never been better, never been better
and i guess that late is better than never
i'm all good
i'm all good
