I love my trumpet but I just can't make it sing I love my trumpet more than almost anything she gave it to me And she knows how to dream so much bigger than I do I've got myself at the top of a hill I haven't climbed yet but I'm sure I will And the words going round could make you stand still if you heard what they're saying And every time I think I know where I stand And every time I think I know that I can I get turned around so easily I love my trumpet but I just can't make it talk I stay up nights but I've never seen the dark And I hope you'll come by and show me where to start Cause I never would have gotten it for myself Sometimes you need to take a little help But when you gave it to me so easily I couldn't even tell And every time I think I know where I stand And every time I think I know that I can I get turned around so easily Everything in this world had to come from somewhere No, not her, she came out of thin air And she floats around, floats around, floats around She floats around over there And every time I think I know where I stand And every time I think I know that I can I get turned around so easily Everything in this world had to come from somewhere No, not her, she came out of thin air And she floats around, floats around, floats around She floats around, she floats around my aching head Until I don't know if I'm safe I was standing outside myself I was standing beside myself I think I was standing beside myself all over again All over again All over again All over again
