John Mayer
In The Neighborhood*
Lyrics from Live Performance
[Verse 1]
Take a moment, and make it last now
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
What's the hurry? Not so fast now
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
All I'm doing is being me now
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
What a feeling to be free now
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Do you remember when you were younger?
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
All the heartache, and the hunger
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
You said you'd wait up, I wouldn't let you
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I said that someday I'd come back to get you
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm back in town
And I think I'm here for good
So if you want to really love me
I think you should, I'll be kicking 'round
In the neighborhood
[Verse 3]
I found the morning when it was hiding
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
And now the quiet's so exciting
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I do the puzzle, I read thе funnies
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
I haven't slept sincе I left in my twenties
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm back in town
And I think, I'm here for good
So if you want to really love me
I wish you would, I'll be kickin' round
In the neighborhood
[Post-Chorus]
In the neighborhood
I'm in the neighborhood
I'm in the neighborhood
And I'm staying put
[Bridge]
Might as well just be myself then
Might as well just be myself then
Might as well just be myself then
Might as well just be myself then
Two trees falling in the woods alone, ah-ah-ah
Nobody calling on the telephone, ah-ah-ah
You and me walking by the riverside, ah-ah-ah
Telling you all about my rocket ride, ah-ah-ah
[Outro]
I'm in the neighborhood
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
