Pocket Philosopher Lyrics by Mandy Moore

Pocket Philosopher

Now I am walking on my own two feet
The sun is shining
My shadow stretched across the street and I meet the eyes of a stranger
I can't quite place him but I wouldn't replace him for a second or a minute or an hour of the day.

I turn the corner, I was feeling good
All the birds were humming, all the bees were buzzing in the trees
All the leaves looked a little bit greener and the air felt cleaner
Yeah, I've must been dreaming for a second or a minute and maybe that's okay

Hey! Come on let's play a song or two or three or four or five if you want more
Or maybe you've got somewhere else to be

Be whoever you want to be
Whatever you want to see
Whatever you want to see

I was awoken by the morning light
My heart felt heavy
I wasn't quite ready to wake up or makeup another good reason
One that is pleasing in a world without seasons
'Cause the truth isn't pretty when it hits you in the face

Hey! Come on let's play a song or two or three or four or five if you want more
Or maybe you've got somewhere else to be
Hey! Come on let's play a song or two or three or four or five if you want more
Or maybe I'll just sing myself back to sleep.
