Umphrey's McGee > Songs > Small Strides > Lyrics


    I'm so tired of the run around
    Everybody's all wired to burst
    Time lies and it's never accountable
    It all seems too rehearsed
    All sides can come around (if you wanted)
    Small strides at first (if you want it)
    Takes all kinds to get it right (think you got it)
    I might be the worst

    Does it feel alright leaving no replies
    Doesn't seem too overpriced
    Didn't mean to bite but you're so uptight
    Stuck in between what's right and what works

    Every time I look at you, all I wanna do
    Is turn your baby brown eye blue

    Everything you gotta say, I'll take it
    If there's anything you wanna break
    Anything you wanna do, believe me when
    I tell you that I want it too

    You know that I'll be alright, everything so well timed
    You really shouldn't be so surprised
    If it's real then why do any other rules apply
    You really couldn't see a smaller stride

    You know that I'll be alright, everything so well timed
    You really shouldn't be so surprised
    If it's real then why do any other rules apply
    Stuck in between what's right and what works
