Dance Of The Clairvoyants – Pearl Jam Lyrics

”Dance Of The Clairvoyants” Lyrics : Pearl Jam

Confusion is,…to commotion
What love is,…to our devotion
Imperceptibly big, big as the ocean
And equally hard to control

So save your predictions
And burn your assumptions
Love is friction
Ripe for comfort

Endless equations
And tugging persuasions
Doors open up
To interpretation

Expecting perfection leaves a lot to ignore
When the past is the present and the future’s no more
When every tomorrow is the same as before

The looser things get,…the tighter you become
The looser things get,…tighter
There’s not one man, who’s greater than the sum
That’s not a negative thought, I’m positive

Falling down,…not staying down
Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down
Drown in the river

Expecting perfection leaves a lot to endure
When the past is the present and the future’s no more
When every tomorrow is the same as before

Numbers keep falling off the calendars floor
Stuck in our boxes, windows open no more
Collecting up the forget-me-nots
Not recalling what they’re for
I’m in love with clairvoyants
Cause they’re out of this world

I know the girls wanna dance…
Away their circumstance
I know the boys wanna grow,..
Their dix and fix and fire things

I know the girls wanna dance…
Clairvoyants in a trance
I know the boys wanna grow,…
Their dix and fix and fire things

Stand back when the spirit comes
Stand back when the spirit comes
Stand back when the spirit comes
Stand back!

Took my love…to have and to hold
Held me down in the river
Took my love…to have and to hold
Drowning in the river

Stand back when the spirit comes
Stand back when the spirit comes
Stand back when the spirit comes
Stand back!
