CAREFREE 070110 - ONE MORE

James Michael Taylor

This song might be better suited for a girl but I don’t have a girl anymore.

CAREFREE

Every time I go out looking for someone who’s not like me
Someone who’s learned to take their time and live their poetry
I dream that Care’s a monkey and he lives across the sea
And I think myself a dreamer. carefree

Every time I dress myself up. Hide what needs to be
Hidden from the eyes of those who may demand a fantasy
I pretend that Care’s a monkey and he lives across the sea
And I think myself a dreamer, carefree

Carefree, carefree me.
But Care is not a monkey and he’s not across the sea
And if his boat had sunk he would have come ashore on me

Every time I make my mind up. Start demanding what is real
I find it’s not that easy when I’m feeling what I feel
And I think that Care’s a monkey and he lives across the sea
And I think that I’m a dreamer, carefree

Every time I start to wonder: do I only fool myself
I can see that I’m no stranger to that flower on the shelf
And I wish I was a monkey and I lived across the sea
I some sunny, rainy forest, carefree
Carefree. Carefree, me.
