The Star - Dan Potthast

You are the star of my favorite episodes

Every line tape recorded

In my mind overexposed

How do I tell them every thing

That you, mean to me

You’re a mountain on my cloud

You’re electricity

When there’s a lapse in my logic

And my brain doesn’t connect

I just snap and I let loose with some things I’ll soon regret

That’s when you grab my hand

And you look me in the eye

And you force me to talk it out

Even though I’d rather not

That’s why…

You are the star of my favorite episodes

Every line tape recorded

In my mind overexposed

How do I tell them every thing

That you, mean to me

You’re a mountain on my cloud

You’re electricity

When a list of every awkward thing I’ve said sticks in my head

Somehow you find a way to make me laugh out loud instead

Oh, the birds and the bees make them all weak in the knees

Every doubt I’ve ever had just floats away in the breeze.

That’s why…

You are the star of my favorite episodes

Every line tape recorded

In my mind overexposed

How do I tell them every thing

That you, mean to me

You’re a mountain on my cloud

You’re electricity

If I could build the unbreakable silence

You pass through with the bull shit siren

You find the holes in my see through logic

Let’s catch an airplane to the closest island

You are the star of my favorite episodes

Every line tape recorded

In my mind overexposed

How do I tell them every thing

That you, mean to me

You’re a mountain on my cloud

You’re electricity

You’re a mountain on my cloud

You’re electricity

You’re a mountain on my cloud

You’re electricity
