Ben Bernstein: Sounds

Flipside

(BB)
2006
Bernstein/Stollenwerk
I woke up one day and had this tune in my head. I wrote the chorus, but didn't have any verses. A little later on I met Samantha Stollenwerk through my friend DC. We did a few gigs together and I asked her to colloborate on a song. She came up with basic verse ideas and we tweaked them together. This was the first song that Dave Tweedie produced for me.
Found you on sunday morning
sunlight streaming on your face
can't recall what we were talking about
the words were coming backwards in and out of place

Picked up my favorite suitcase
from underneath the bed
packed up all my favorite records
wonderin' if you ever heard a single word I said

You got me on the flipside
you got me on the inside out
you got me on this train ride
but the track is runnin' south

The only thing I wanted
the only thing I ever cared about
was babe if you could tell me
what your love is all about

You know your like December
the cool breeze in the air
lookin' back now remember
I loved you just like the summer
babe I think the heat was just too much to bear

You got me on the flipside
you got me on the inside out
you got me on this train ride
but the track is runnin' south

The only thing I wanted
the only thing I ever cared about
was babe if you could tell me
what your love is all about

I'll catch you on the flipside
catch you on the inside out
that long long train ride
has got me runnin' south

Runnin' south of the mainline
there ain't no tellin' where it goes
babe it's such a fine line
between what you feel and what you know

You got me on the flipside
you got me on the inside out
you got me on this train ride
but the track is runnin' south

The only thing I wanted
the only thing I ever cared about
was babe if you could tell me
what your love is all about

You've got me inside out
tounge tied and runnin' south
