Lyrics
I thought it was
And I thought it well
And maybe even
Time could tell
That all I know and all I've known, could
Fit into a little tiny box
And all of the world would laugh and lose their socks
How many things can one read 'til they feel they're not afraid of it all?
How many cases of words, am I being absurd?
Doing fine, I'm having a whale of a time, but if
The world could consume all the things that you knew
We'd be living the life, a contender for a wife
We'd be having a laugh
Wish I could make them laugh, mm-hm
In joke there comes the truth
I am not blinded by my youth
The five years had their time, but you sit
In a lane much like mine
For when all is said and done what's left is
Far beyond the problems that are listed
It may be easy, just believe me that
Our life holds a light no life has held before
Maybe I speak in a way
That makes it seem like I was born yesterday
But I'm not afraid at all
There'll be another who's seen every colour, but it's all in the shade
Look at the life that we made
No word or phrase
Has the power to say what the tyres we share
It's far greater than rare, oh yeah
In dark, there comes the light
And we must try with all our might
To keep this thing alive
We've got that house by the bay
There's no place that I'd rather stay
I'll stay there right 'til the day
Where you shall pass, I, too, shall pass, all things must pass
Like days, they pass from one to another and another
I will love no other, no, no
I know now, I know now that yeah, that
Life is good
And I feel understood
Do you? If you don't, let me know and now here comes the chorus
For when all is said and done what's left is
Far beyond the problems that are listed
It may be easy, just baby, believe me that
Our life
If time was on my side
I would ask him to return
To a moment
Which holds for us a great concern
Which moment to pick?
Which time to select?
There are so many chances steeped in regret
No matter which one you choose
Baby, you're always gonna lose
Well, that's what the demons say
I never liked those guys anyway
