The Ascent Of Man — REM
So hesitation pulled me back I'm stronger when I don't attract In your eyes I'm a lamb without a rack And I am getting confused I'm a cactus trying to be a canoe As you pan for ore In the desert, floored I say to you
That I could never imagine a place so beautiful I could never steal your gold away.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[I try to walk like a big wham bam I came across like a battering ram I try to float like a telegram sam I'm trying to divine you. ]
My book is called "The Ascent Of Man" I marked your chapter with a catamaran The accent's off But I am what I am
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[I try to walk like a big wham bam I came across like a battering ram I try to float like a telegram sam I'm trying to divine you.]
I looked for you, it's my last grandstand A motorscootered goat legged pan Figure eighting in quicksand ...
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[I try to walk like a big wham bam I try to float like a telegram sam I came across like a battering ram I'm trying to divine you. ]
[I try to walk like a big wham bam I try to float like a telegram sam I came across like a battering ram I'm trying to divine you. ]
So hesitation pulled me back I'm so in love I don't attract And with my hands tied I won't crack
