Song lyrics
This is a call to the colorblind 
This is an IOU 
Stranded behind a horizon line 
Try to be something true 

Yes, I'm grounded 
Got my wings clipped 
I'm surrounded by 
All this pavement 
Guess I'll circle 
While I'm waiting 
For my fuse to dry 

Chorus: 
Someday I'll fly 
Someday I'll soar 
Someday I'll be 
So damn much more 
Cause I'm bigger than my body 
Gives me credit for 

Why is it not the time? 
What is there more to learn? 
I've shed this skin I've been tripping in 
And I've never quite returned 

Yes, I'm grounded 
Got my wings clipped 
I'm surrounded by 
All this pavement 
Guess I'll circle 
While I'm waiting 
For my fuse to dry 

Chorus 

Cause I'm bigger than my body now 

Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines 
And it might be over in a second's time 
But I'll gladly go down in a flame 
If the flame's what it takes to remember my name 
To remember my name, oh 

Yes, I'm grounded 
Got my wings clipped 
I'm surrounded by 
All this pavement 
Guess I'll circle 
While I'm waiting 
For my fuse to dry 

Chorus 

Cause I'm bigger than my body 
Bigger than my body 
Bigger than my body now

john mayer is such an awesome musician...and i think it would be horrible if he was as famous as, like, britney spears or something. Its good that REAL people (unlike all those wannabes and unoriginals out there) can listen to his music in peace. and i got a little worried when "daughters" was like number 33 on the top 100 lyrics here... so lets keep him for ourselves...

John Mayor is a great guitar player...and Brad Paisley is a great guitar polayer. No wonder they had a crossroads concert togather. John Mayer sang Celebrity and Little moments and Brad Paisley sang Bigger than my body and Daughters. Even if Brad is a country singer, I have to admit that he was GREAT singing BOTH songs. Same goes with John......
I love them both!!!! {more Brad Paisley though...lol}
