Complicated Songtext

von Yonder Mountain String Band

There is fire
And there's light
The sense of something
Coming down this telephone wire
And there's wrong and there's right
That's the closest thing to clarity tonight

There are songs I've seen
That can make somebody feel
Like things are better than they seem
That there's time
Yes there's time tonight

In my own defense
I don't believe that I
Was born this complicated

You can say
Something
Wait until the people cheer
Then give them the refrain
And the band plays those blues away

In my own defense
I don't believe that I
Was born this complicated

There's a frame of mind
Its a surfacing you notice
From the corner of your eye
You can see for miles
With an inner light that's guiding you home

In my own defense
I don't believe that I
Was born this complicated
This complicated
This complicated
This complicated
