India Arie – Always In My Head lyrics

You're like a cool breeze
On a summer's day...

You're always in my head
You're always in my head

You're like a cool breeze on a summer's day
You're like a river running through a desert plain
You are my shelter from the pouring rain
You were my comfort even before the pain
I can hear the sound of five drummers in the wind
Leaves blowing in the breeze ring out like guitars
A tin can rolls across the gravel like a tamborine
I am but a vessel, so I sing
Because you are in my head

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
In my dreams, you're always in my head
In my pain, you're always in my head
In my peace, you're always in my head

A rainbow of rhythm stretches across the sky
An airplane in the distance plays a beautiful cello line
It's no coincidence it's in tune with the music in my ears
If you were a shoulder, you're where I would rest
But I am a vessel so I hear you in my head

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
In my fears, you're always in my head
In my joys, you're always in my head
In tears, you're always in my head

You're always in my head

You're like a cool breeze on a summer's day
You're like a river running through a desert plain
You've been my shelter from the pouring rain
You were my comfort even before the pain
Because I hear you in my head

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
In my dreams, you're always in my head
In my pain, you're always in my head
In my peace, you're always in my head

You're always in my head

[Chorus]
You're always in my head
In my fears, you're always in my head
In my joy, you're always in my head
In my tears, you're always in my head

How can I live one day without music
How can I live one day without you
How can I live one day without music
You're always in my head
(x3)

You are, you are love
You are, you are light
You are, you are joy
You are, you are peace
(fade)
