Lyrics

I was nearly rendered in two Down and out with nothing to lose Those summer blues will surely wreck you too As the hour hand turns round the face Oh I can't help feel like we're running in place An easy way to drive yourself insane Patiently awaiting the call Oh boy while you watch all my dreams just stall To end it all appears the motive Oh I long to be guarding the gates up at the top Oh you just wait and see, I'm willing to bet there's room for us yet As we arrive back to the refrain You'd better ask was it worth a whole life of pain Well darn it I say I'd do it all again Growing so tired of missing the mark Holding my tongue to not get smart Don't wanna tear a good thing apart As we approach the promise land Try to conceal your shaking hands We'll be acquainted before too long I'll try my best to sing these songs It'll be worth it darling I can vouch And if you like me I can crash on your couch We'll be acquainted before too long I could be wrong, you could tear me apart Laugh at my songs and stomp on my heart As I approached her one last time To plant a seed in her mind She was far too preoccupied Just had to leave her behind In certain terms I said goodbye So I had to leave right then In order to avoid looking like a fool There are many I would like to know Many I want to meet Many I will just merely speak to Most of them I'll never see But I know, don't ask me how She could have made me So very happy and content
