Special to Me (Phoenix Audition Song) Songtext

von Jessica Harper

Caught in your wheeling-dealing
You've got no time left for simple feeling
I thought I knew you, but I didn't know you at all
Trapped inside your world of worry
You miss so much when you always hurry
Well slow down baby, you'll only get hurt if you fall

Well you told me one time that you'd be somebody,
That you weren't working just to survive
But you're working so hard that you don't even know you're alive
Working so hard to be somebody special,
Not working just to survive
Well you're special to me babe, but what I don't see babe,
Is where you go once you arrive
Where we go once we arrive

Damn all the evil that takes possession
Until your pipe dreams become obsessions
They scare me baby, and we should have nothing to fear
I'm no child but I can't help wonder
It seems like some kind of spell you're under
You're listening baby, but somehow you don't really hear

Well you told me one time that you'd be somebody,
That you weren't working just to survive
But you're working so hard that you don't even know you're alive
Working so hard to be somebody special,
Not working just to survive
Well you're special to me babe, but what I don't see babe,
Is where we go once we arrive
Where you go once you arrive
