Lyrics?
I figured out some of them...but having some trouble.
Anyone got 'em?

BH

Let me know if you figure it out.  That's one of the few we don't have filled in on the "Other Lyrics" thread.
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

Have you ever seen yourself
Through the eyes of someone else...
The river is moving. The blackbird must be flying.

Angry Ewok

Have you ever seen yourself,
In the eyes of someone else?
Only to find that someone else was you?
Wish it weren't so complicated,
With little left to do...

That last line is probably wrong, and I won't even bother trying to understand the second verse.

--- and that's 2 real 4 u.

I thought I'd tried my hand at this one before...

Here's what I have posted in the "Other" Lyrics thread:

That Someone Else Was You
(with possible discrepancies)

have you ever seen yourself
through the eyes of someone else
only to find that someone else was you?

wish it weren't so complicated
but it'll have to do

found you on the ground in front of the elevator door
Beechwood (each one?) has a sound escape
and love light from the radio (let me know if anyone hears this differently, it's not extremely distinct)
knew that you were feelin bad
knew that I weren't feelin good
matted hair, unconscious sighs
and Levi's on your big white thighs...
The river is moving. The blackbird must be flying.

How did I not get that one inserted in the main section?  Hmm, thanks Tom.  I will add.
