Blues Traveler After What Lyrics

After What Lyrics

And if I take a different tack

Well then forgive me if the long way round

Confuses up the point until you're numb enough to hear

That you're using the anointing oil like it's sacramental beer



And don't blame heaven or hell

You have to look to yourself

And nobody else will lift a light to make you see

Don't got to learn a damn thing, part of being free



And I realize, when I buck my place

It's my feet but it's their race



And I don't run unless you try to chase me

And I don't leave unless you offer me a stay

And I won't fight unless I'm cornered or I'm after what I want

What that is I wish that I could say



So forgive me or forget you

If you think you cannot bear

Believe me life won't let you

If you blink you shall not fare



But should you get the chance try to make for the fence

It's a subtle dance we do to stay in from the cold

And the cleverest ones get to be real old



And I may struggle, I may complain

But I'm just trying to grab at the reins



And I don't run unless you try to chase me

And I don't leave until you offer me a stay

And I don't fight unless I'm cornered or I'm after what I want

What that is I wish that I could say



I don't run unless you try to chase me

And I don't leave until you offer me a stay

And I don't fight unless I'm cornered or I'm after what I want

What that is I wish that I could say



And if I'm wondering where to go

Well then forgive me if I don't know
