Special To Me (Phoenix Audition Song)

Caught up in your wheeling, dealing

You've got no time left for simple feeling

I thought I knew you, but I didn't know you at all

Trapped inside your world of worry

You miss so much when you always hurry

Well, slow down, baby, you'll only get hurt if you fall

Well, you told me one time that you'd be somebody

That you weren't working just to survive

But you're working so hard that you don't even know you're alive

Working so hard to be somebody special

Not working just to survive

Well, you're special to me, babe

But what I don't see, babe

Is where you go once you arrive

Where we go once we arrive

Damn all evil that takes possession

Until your pipe-dreams become obsessions

They scare me, baby, and we should have nothing to fear

I'm no child but I can't help wonder

It seems like some kind of spell you're under

You're listening, baby, but somehow you don't really hear

Well, you told me one time that you'd be somebody

That you weren't working just to survive

But you're working so hard that you don't even know you're alive

Working so hard to be somebody special

Not working just to survive

Well, you're special to me, babe

But what I don't see, babe

Is where we go once we arrive

Where you go once you arrive
