I can get up
   On the right side of the bed
   But that won't stop the rain
   From coming down on my head
   I can live my life
   Playing hide and seek
   But when I look inside
   It's hard to make believe,
   Ah ah
  
   'n lately
   You seem so far away
   I wish I could say something
   But I don't know what to say
   I can feel your eyes
   I don't have to look at you
   Boy, discontentment
   Is-a-sneakin' through
  
   You never really want anything
   But what you really need is everything
   I'll give you something only life can bring
   The calm inside the storm
   Love me a little, love me long
   Wo yeah
   The calm inside the storm
   Love me a little, love me long
   Don't you know
   You should be holding me
   But you're all locked inside
   Why don't you throw me your keys
   I'm like a rockin' ship
   On your rollin' sea
   You know crash lightnin'
   Never frightens me, nah
  
   ...You never really wanted
   But what u really needed
   I wanna give u something
   mmm... the calm inside the storm
   Love me a little, love me long
   Love me a little, love me long
