Not Quite Enough (Peter O’Doherty) - The world is overwhelming at times, an unceasing barrage of communication, information and bad news. It’s all so present and yet so far away. Sometimes all you want is a bit of down time to muse like a kid on a beam of dust in your bedroom.

Lyrics

Not Quite Enough
(Peter O’Doherty)
We are somehow connected
 Connected by our differences
 We have in common all this distance between us Don’t want it do you want it too
 Too much or is that too little 
Too little is not quite enough
 It’s later, later than you think
It’s only one more drink 
Act normal are you paying attention
 Be yourself or somebody else 
We have in common all this distance between us Too much is not quite enough 
Lying out on the floor
 Distracted by the light
 Sailing on a beam of dust without a destination Sit down you make me feel nervous 
I’m on my feet I just can’t sit still
 I lost my rhythm to the windscreen wipers They wouldn’t stop though it wouldn’t rain 
For too long now this distance between us
 Too little is more than enough
 All of your faces look good
 The sad ones do just what they should 
Now where was I, I’ve lost my place again Lying out on the floor
 Distracted by the light
Sailing on a beam of dust without a destination Sailing on a beam of dust 
We are somehow connected
 Connected by our differences
