Tangerine
You had me drink a whole lotta tangerine tenderleaf
I didn’t like the taste but you said it was good for me
To find your own style, do you have to go against the tide?
It’s so good to be put away for a while

’Cause I’m a man and that is why
The feelings amplify
I remember when I’m closing my eyes
Ain’t a thing that I can do

We made a lotta love to a tambourine’s clumsy beat
The angels cried ’cause they really have strong beliefs
Obscure future seems rather palpable to me
I’m doing all I can and it never works out for me

Cause I’m a man and that is why
The feelings amplify
I remember when I’m closing my eyes
Ain’t a thing that I can do

I thought that I was good but now my cover is blown
I’ve been walking this direction since the day I was born
I thought that I was good but now my cover is blown away

I thought that I was good but now my cover is blown
I’ve been walking this direction since the day I was born
I thought that I was good but now my cover is blown away
