Full Court Press

It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing

Just folded up all of my funeral clothes
When I heard the news the elevator dropped
Pull up my sneakers and my regular shoes
And I pull the pills from cracks in the sidewalk

But I would never be ashamed
We were singing purple rain
Everybody’s hands up high
Nothing but some bad love
Even though we’re all alone
Your voice was blaring
From the one blown speaker on the passenger side

It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing

We turn the search lights to corners of the sky
Swear I hadn’t felt this way since 85
I lit a cigarette unto my fingertips
Blowing lines around the circles in my mind

But I would never be ashamed
We were singing purple rain
Everybody’s hands up high
Nothing but some bad love
Even though we’re all alone
Your voice was blaring
From the one blown speaker on the passenger side

It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
And my passion has no vision
And I think I’m out of time
And I gave myself forgiveness
But my eye is still on fire

I keep on it
Even though my feelings don’t
I keep on it
Because my love is strong
Yeah

I keep on it
Even though my world is blown
I keep on it
Take it to the brink of dawn

It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing

It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
It was a full court place that evening
You know we believing
You know we believing
