Energy

[Verse 1]
I caught a cab in the dead of the night
‘Cause I just knew that something wasn't right
I left my bag at the foot of your door
Guess I just couldn’t take a second more

[Verse 2]
I could just feel it going in and out
Something musical to scream about
And I just knew that something had to change
Between you and I, it’s just a role I play

[Chorus]
That’s why I took that energy (you and I were riding on)
To write a symphony (everything was piling on)
I knew I’d never be (be the one you’re counting on)
But baby I believe (better to be moving on)
I guess I’ll know forever ’til I've thrown it away
Not I’m not claiming to be clever I’m just trying to say
I took that energy (you and I were riding on)
To write a symphony (everything is riding on)
This moment

[Verse 3]
We got a situation on the street
No university could ever teach
You’re gonna have to shower me with praise
‘Cause I’m feeling so tender these days

[Chorus]
That’s why I took that energy (you and I were riding on)
To write a symphony (everything was piling on)
I knew I’d never be (be the one you’re counting on)
But baby I believe (better to be moving on)
I guess I’ll know forever ’til I've thrown it away
Not I’m not claiming to be clever I’m just trying to say
I took that energy (you and I were riding on)
To write a symphony (everything is riding on)

[Bridge]
And if I just keep hanging on (I’m living in my head)
I keep hanging on, well I’ll be landing on
I’m always landing on my feet
Keep hanging on (I’m living in my head)
I keep hanging on, I’ll be landing on
Yeah I’ll be landing on my feet (I took that energy)
Keep hanging on (I’m living in my head)
I keep hanging on, well I’ll be landing on
I’m always landing on my feet
Keep hanging on (I’m living in my head)
I keep hanging on, I’ll be landing on
(I’m living in my head)

[Chorus]
I took that energy (you and I were riding on)
To write a symphony (everything was piling on)
I knew I’d never be (be the one you’re counting on)
But baby I believe (better to be moving on)
I guess I’ll know forever ’til I've thrown it away
Not I’m not claiming to be clever I’m just trying to say
I took that energy (you and I were riding on)
