As I Was Saying - Jack Johnson

As I was saying

Just before you left the room

Before I assumed

That you might not come around

As I was saying

Just after I took my foot from

My mouth and put it back

On the ground

I don’t want to disappoint you

I don’t want to disappear

From here or now or you

This is worth saving

Because the sum of us is more than us

If you add us up

Then subtract my lack of sleep

My mind feels crazy

When all these thoughts come rushing in

Should I be trusting them

Or only let them be?

I don’t want to disappoint you

I don’t want to disappear

From here or now or you

Is it just a matter of time?

Or does it even matter at all?

Because even if this story should fall

From the sky to the sea

If I should fall

Would you fall down with me?

Would you fall?

Found my foundation

It was underneath me all along

On this path I’m on

Now I never walk alone

I’ve been erasing

Rewrote the second half like this

So my protagonist

Might find his way back home

I don’t want to disappoint you

I don’t want to disappear

From here or now or you

Not from here or now or you
