Instinct and Feel

I go by instinct I go by feel
keep my eyes wide open a great deal
listen to noises in the night
keep what’s important in my sight
I go by instinct I go by feel

I don’t trust my own head
cause you never know
what it might come up with
when it decides for you
my body might disagree
nothing’s written in stone
hammered in steel
I go by instinct I go by feel

I don’t like great heights
but I don’t look down
I love the colours
I love the sound
I love the smell of gasoline
the rust and paint on your machine
I go by instinct I go by feel

guitar

I am with you
because it makes no sense
but I got used to
the strange ways we blend
I noticed the secrets you conceal
the world is cruel the world is mean
I go by instinct I go by feel

you think I like numbers
and cold hard facts
but you’re misled by
the way I act
I’d love to follow the birds south
and watch new words drop from your mouth
I go by instinct I go by feel

I go by instinct I go by feel

I go by instinct with you and me
