Ben Folds
Landed (Strings Version)
[Verse 1]
We'd hit the bottom
I thought it was my fault
In a way I guess it was
I'm just now finding out
What it was all about
Moved to the west coast
Away from everyone
She never told me that you called
Back when I was still
I was still in love
[Chorus]
Until I opened my eyes and walked out the door
And the clouds came tumbling down
And it's bye-bye
Goodbye, I tried
And I twisted it wrong
Just to make it right
Had to leave myself behind
I've been flying high all night
So come pick me up
I've landed
[Verse 2]
The daily dramas
She made from nothing
So nothing ever made them right
She liked to push me
And talk me back down
Until I believed
I was the crazy one
And in a way I guess I was
[Chorus]
But I opened my eyes and walked out the door
And the clouds came tumbling down
And it's bye-bye
Goodbye, I tried
Treading the sea of a troubled mind
Had to leave myself behind
Singing bye-bye
Goodbye, I tried
If you wrote me off
I'd understand it
Because I've been on
Some other planet
So come pick me up
I've landed
[Bridge]
And you will be so
Happy to know
I've come alone
It's over
[Chorus]
But I opened my eyes and walked out the door
And the clouds came tumbling down
And it's bye-bye
Goodbye, I tried
Down comes the reign of the telephone czar
It's okay to call
And I will answer for myself
Come pick me up
Come pick me up
I've landed
