I don't belong in the world

That's what it is

Something separates me from other people

Everywhere I turn

There's something blocking my escape.

It took thirteen beaches to find one empty

But finally it's mine

With dripping peaches

I'm camera ready

Almost all the time.

But I still get lonely

And baby only then

Do I let myself recline?

Can I let go?

And let your memory dance

In the ballroom of my mind

Across the county line.

It hurts to love you

But I still love you

It's just the way I feel

And I'd be lying

If I kept hiding

The fact that I can't deal

And that I've been dying

For something real

That I've been dying

For something real.

It took thirteen beaches to find one empty

But finally I'm fine

Past ventura

And lenses plenty

In the white sunshine.

But you still can find me

If you ask nicely

Underneath the pines

With the daisies

Feeling hazy

In the ballroom of my mind

Across the county line.

It hurts to love you

But I still love you

It's just the way I feel

And I'd be lying

If I kept hiding

The fact that I can't deal

And that I've been dying

For something real

That I've been dying

For something real.

It hurts to love you

But I still love you

It's just the way I feel

And I'd be lying

If I kept hiding

The fact that I can deal

The fact that I can deal.
