Special To Me (Phoenix Audition Song) Text

---

Caught up in your wheelin' dealin'
You've got no time left for simple feelin'
I thought I knew you but I didn't know you at all

Trapped inside your world of worry
You miss so much when you always hurry
Well slow down baby
You'll only get hurt if you fall

Well you told me one time that you'd be somebody
That you weren't workin' just to survive
But you're workin' so hard
That you don't even know you're alive

Workin' so hard to be somebody special
Not working just to survive
Well you're special to me babe
But what I don't see babe
Is where you go once you arrive?
Where we go once we arrive

Damn all evil that takes possession
Until your pipe dreams become obsessions
They scare me baby
And we should have nothing to fear
I'm no child
But I can't help wonder
It seems like some kind of spell you're under
You're listenin' baby
But somehow you don't really hear

Well you told me one time that you'd be somebody
That you weren't workin' just to survive
But you're workin' so hard
That you don't even know you're alive
Workin' so hard to be somebody special
Not working just to survive
Well you're special to me babe
But what I don't see babe is
Where you go once you arrive
Where we go once we arrive
