JOHN MAYER - 3 X 5 LYRICS

3 X 5 Lyrics

I'm writing you to
catch you up on places I've been
You held this letter
probably got excited, but there's nothing else inside it
didn't have a camera by my side this time
hopping I would see the world with both my eyes
maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm
in the mood to lose my way with words
Today skies are painted colors of a cowboy's cliche'
And strange how clouds that look like mountains in the sky
are next to mountains anyway
Didn't have a camera by my side this time
Hoping I would see the world with both my eyes
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm
in the mood to lose my way
but let me say
You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside
just no more 3x5's Guess you had to be there
Guess you had to be with me Today I finally overcame
tryin' to fit the world inside a picture frame
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm in the mood to
lose my way but let me say
You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside
no more 3x5's

BabiGurl45	25/08/2004 00:24:47
bakini kill, where did you meet him?

tporter	10/07/2004 20:54:52
Can anyone explain what he means by 3X5's? I'm assuming photos, but I don't know. Maybe this is a stupid question, but I'm not sure if I get it. :)

Bikini Kill!!!!! ARE U SERIOUS???? Oh my god I am SOOO jealousof you! He is just so talented n he's awesome! I love all of his stuff! SOOO NOT FAIR

Bikini Kill	17/07/2003 09:22:05
i met him and he gave me a kiss

Totally agree with the two of you guys. He should be apprieciated for talent and not obssessed over by little children. If you like his music - great! If you like him for his looks, then sadly, i guess your hearts not in the right place. I hope john makes another album because the first two were great. This song is my favourite and i hope he can write others similar.

Mona Lisa- I agree whole-heartedly, grow up kids and learn to appreciate the man for his music not just his physical attributes. Go on doin' what you're doing John

Its "fans" like you that give Mayer here a bad name. He is NOT a frickin teeny bopper guy but thats what you're making him out to be when you go "HE'S MINE! MARRY ME! blah z blah"...you guys sound stupid. SO anyways yeah John's a wonderfull guy and I hope he keeps on doing what he's doing now.

this song really shows you how much we miss outside in the world. always trying to "fit the world inside a picture frame". basically, we just need to see what's surrounding us and enjoy it instead of trying to make beauty by taking small snapshots of life. we need to look at the big picture. john mayer rocks!
