Let the tears fall like rain in California...

There are times when I love John Mayer's adlibbing more than the song itself. I recently found a live version of Wheel and I adore this song on the record. But not only do I love the fact he makes the crowd help with the ending, but I love the words he uses to encourage them...


People have the right to fly
And will when it gets compromised
Their hearts say move along
Their minds say gotcha heart
Let's move it along
Let's move it along

And airports see it all the time
Where someone's last goodbye
Blends in with someone's sigh
'Cause someone's coming home
In hand a single rose

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now
And I won't be the last
No I won't be the last to love her

And you can't build a house of leaves
And live like it’s an evergreen
It's just a season thing
It's just this thing the seasons do

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now
And you won't be the first
No you won't be the first to love me

You can find me if you ever want to give
I'll be around the bend
I'll be around the bend
I'll be around I'll be around

And if you never stop when you wave goodbye
You just might find if you give it time
You will wave hello again
You just might wave hello again

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now

Alright Dallas this is where I need your help
Can you help me out tonight?
I can't imagine anybody has had
A life this long so far without feeling this way
I just can't imagine it

So when I sing I need you to sing back
And just keep singing no matter what happenes
Will you do it even if you're not the singing type?

Sing for the one who broke your heart
And sing for the one who left it too early
And sing for the person that you think about
Every morning before your feet hit the floor

Just think about it just think about it
Just sing ok just sing this
As soon as you get it just start singing
And don't stop no matter what I do

You can't love too much one part of it
You can't love too much one part of it
You can't love too much one part of it
You can't love too much one part of it
You can't love too much one part of it
You can't love too much one part of it

Don't stop

You can't love too much one part of it
You can't love too much one part of it

I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give returned to me

Don't you dare stop

I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give returned to me

Keep going don't you stop keep going

I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give returned to me

One more time one more time one more time

I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give returned to me

You sweet little angels you
Thank-you
That was something
Thank-you very much

Beautiful man.

It's raining today. Constant, steady rain with regular rumbles of thunder. I love it. We don't have nearly enough rainy days, I find. I should move to London...

lyrics, john mayer
