"And I" lyrics - PORTUGAL. THE MAN

PORTUGAL. THE MAN
"And I"
(John Baldwin Gourley)

[Verse 1: John Gourley, Gang Vocals]
Some were reborn
Some were simply shaken free
And some were the colors
That took to the streets

They found in those later years
They knew what we need
It's love for each other
And every living thing

And I hope my time
Hope my time
Is used
It's all my only and lonely time too

Oh, some were simply shaken free
Oh, some were the colors
Oh, that took to the streets

Oh, they thought in those younger years
Oh, they knew what to do
Oh, they knew what to say
Oh, had nothing to lose

[Bridge: Gang Vocals]
Now pick up and pack up
The place you were pink
And falling around
Dripping and crawling and
Clawing inside
You're missing some sounds

The ones that float carry
And dance about time
And space that it lends
Room to be free
Like the sun and the moon
Save for the sounds

[Chorus: John Gourley & Zachary Carothers, Gang Vocals]
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2: John Gourley]
We'll be reborn
Yea, we'll simply be free
We'll be the colors
That pour through the streets

And find in there after years
That we're all - we're all the same
We're all the colors
That pour through the streets

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus: John Gourley & Zachary Carothers, Gang Vocals]
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh
Take from the air, take to the streets and I Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Outro: John Gourley & Zachary Carothers]
Take from the air, take to the streets and I
Take from the air, take to the streets and I
