JONATHA'S NOTE:

I just wanted to groove here. Michael Franti was gracious enough to come by and rock on the chorus. I combined a swimmier melodic guitar part -- Val McCallum with Goffrey Moore's Nile Rogersish funky part. Then the vocals and the drums just ride right along. This was a fun one take vocal. The pocket was just so huge, I settled right in.
LYRICS: I bottled up my hope, before it got spread too thin
I threw it in the ocean and then I jumped right in
All my heroes disappeared just like deja vu
But I am a strong swimmer and I swam right into you

Now there's evidence I've been here, but no one knows how long
My change is in your pocket, and the whisper of my song
My clothes are in your closet and my books surround your bed
I wonder what you expected, and what you got instead,
What you got...

Cuz I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see
And I like it
I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see
And I like it, I like it, I like it

My friends all think they've lost me, my family's up in arms
But no one ever noticed 'til I sounded the alarm
There's danger in complacency and comfort in the fight
For the way that you whisper in the sweetness of the night
The sweetness of the night

Cuz I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see
And I like it
I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see
And I like it, I like it, I like it

Where there is ruin there is hope for treasure
Out of the ashes come comfort and pleasure
This is the love that no one can measure
I have you, I hold you
We are birds of a feather

I bottled up my hope, before it got spread too thin
I threw it in the ocean and then I jumped right in
All my heroes disappeared, just like deja vu
But I am a strong swimmer and I swam right into you

The steady pull of things that I can't see
And I like it
I feel the steady pull of things that I can't see
And I like it, I like it, I like it
