lyrics

I lived in Dullsville, Tennessee
Where no-one dared to visit me
I drew the curtains on the rainskies
Went to pieces in my lover’s eyes
Left those pieces on the floor

You took the jigsaw of my dreams
And made the picture in the my hands
Your spirit calms like morphine
It clears the raindrops from these vagrant lands
You picked the pieces from the floor

Takes the pressure off me
It makes it easy on me
Takes the pressure off me
I cannot think for myself

You’ve got the complete picture
Do you like what you can see?
Didn’t leave me with a rough edge
It’s filled the gaps in all my dreams
You won’t lose one small piece of me

Takes the pressure off me
It makes it easy on me
Takes the pressure off me
I cannot think for myself
And where you lead, I’ll follow
When you jump I’ll make that leap

Now the challenge is complete
Will you box me up so neat
Find a attic space
Leave me to the dust and defeated
You’ll still have one small piece of me

Takes the pressure off me
It makes it easy on me
Takes the pressure off me
I cannot think for myself
And where you lead, I’ll follow
When you jump I’ll make that leap
