[Verse 1]
The sun’s coming over
I’m floating down the Mississippi like Huckleberry Finn
I’m on my way to the ocean
But I’ve got this feeling like I’m headed toward a waterfall
(I guess that’s just how it goes)
I’m falling off the edge
[Chorus]
When my turbulent heart starts beating
There ain’t nobody else to come and cool me down
You’re like Aretha Franklin
You got more soul than I know what to do with
And I can’t do without you
[Verse 2]
Lazy like a Lilly laying deep in my heart

And I can’t do without you
[Post-Chorus]
That’s why I say a little prayer for you

When my turbulent heart starts beating
There ain’t nobody else to come and cool me down
You’re like Aretha Franklin
You got more soul than I know what to do with
[Chorus]
When my turbulent heart starts beating
There ain’t nobody else to come and cool me down
You’re like Aretha Franklin
You got more soul than I know what to do with
And I can’t do without you
[Post-Chorus]
That’s why I say a little prayer for you
Hope that one day it comes true
That’s why I say a little prayer for you
Hope that one day it comes true, for you
This was one of the last songs to be added to the EP. I was on a plane from somewhere to somewhere and freaked out over some turbulence and thought ‘turbulent heart’ had a ring to it.
