Elevator lyrics (so far, snippet from Karin’s – ZeroGravity1- video)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
I had a dream last night
I didn’t know which floor to get off on, aye yeah
The doors they opened on, 4 and 5 and 6
And you were gone, all gone
I didn’t understand, I didn’t want to know
At least I took a chance
I had to let it go
Elevator goes up
Elevator come down
And you just go with the flow
‘Til your feet are back on the ground
It’s an endless ride
Sometimes it takes awhile
Sometimes it tears you down inside
But it’s the butterflies
That keep you feeling so alive, so alive
You gotta get back that high
And in my dream last night
The doors they finally shut
And I was there, somewhere
Alone in my reality inside an empty box that’s filled with air
I don’t care, noooo
Next time I’ll get it right
Next time I’ll be OK
I’ll have a different dream tonight
Tomorrow’s another day
Elevator goes up
Elevator come down
And you just go with the flow
‘Til your feet are back on the ground
It’s an endless ride
Sometimes it takes awhile
Sometimes it tears you down inside
But it’s the butterflies
That keep you feeling so alive, so alive
You gotta get back that high
You’ll never know what you’re gonna get
What you don’t expect
Can come and find you
If you laugh or cry, you run and hide
But it’s all right
Elevator goes up
Elevator come down
And you just go with the flow
‘Til your feet are back on the ground
It’s an endless ride
Sometimes it takes awhile
Sometimes it tears you down inside
But it’s the butterflies
That keep you feeling so alive, so alive
You gotta get back that high
Elevator goes up
Elevator come down
And you just go with the flow
‘Til your feet are back on the ground
It’s an endless ride
Sometimes it takes awhile
Sometimes it tears you down inside
But it’s the butterflies
That keep you feeling so alive, so alive
You gotta get back that high

Woo Hoo. This is really a milestone moment with “Elevators.” It’s all David’s and it’s as quirky and unexpected as heck. And personal, a dream, doesn’t mean anything he qualifies, but still a dream. It’s always super intriguing, magnetic even to see glimpses of what goes on in someone you admire mind.
And it sounds Jason Mraz-ish….reminded me just a smidgen of “I’m Yours.”
Louisville tonight and more videos (*fingers crossed*)

I think it’s actually “I didn’t understand, I didn’t want to know”, instead of “I didn’t want to know, I didn’t understand”. I’m listening to the performance from Columbus and that’s how it sounds to me.
