Go Fish - 1A (Dreamy)

Verse 1

Dazed and confused, she played with my mind
And all I wanted was a hand to hold
I came to the table to play a little Hearts
She was already reading fortunes in the cards she’d been told

Simple is my speed
Just plant the seed and let it grow
But every little shadow turned into a storm
Every question into something she thought she oughta know

Chorus

Fear, fear, fear
Lord, I hate that fear
It’ll take a good thing
And make it disappear

It whispers in the darkness
Till the truth can’t be found
Fear don’t build nothin’
It just burns it to the ground

Verse 2

She was a conspiracy from the very first date
A detective searching for a crime
Found me guilty with the very first thought
And convicted me before my time

I had some friends who didn’t like her much
And she feared what she couldn’t control
But love ain’t a prison and it ain’t a chain
You can’t own another soul

Chorus

Fear, fear, fear
Lord, I hate that fear
It’ll poison every promise
Till the ending’s crystal clear

It takes a little doubt
And lets the darkness steer
Fear don’t kill you quickly
It just slowly disappears

Bridge

I loved that girl
Lord, I loved her deep
Deeper than I’ve loved before

But sometimes a square peg won’t fit
No matter how hard you push it through the door

You can fight for love
You can pray for love
You can give it all you’ve got

But sometimes love ain’t enough
When fear keeps callin’ every shot

Guitar Break

Final Chorus

Fear, fear, fear
The oldest thief around
Stealin’ all the good things
Before they can be found

Hate, anger, jealousy
Runnin’ hand in hand
Another day in the dime store
Of self-destruction’s land

Outro

So I folded up my cards
And laid ’em on the table
Watched her disappear back into the mist

Sometimes that’s just life
Sometimes that’s just love

And sometimes…

You gotta say…

Go Fish.

Back into the pond you go.
