Friends, we can get a long in a harmony of jokes But where are we when one of us chokes
Down on the quarry, where the music silences And the beats in between our hearts become apparent and orient And the acoustic birds begin to ring our ears When the face of an angel, blinks and tears.
Scatter yonder my feelings bare, barely Before the hint of a moment reaches it's highest point Cause I find you more beautiful with mascara worn away Then prettied up for some pesky bar date.
Sad songs chime joy when in rhythm with the feeling But every song you've sung is so commiserating, when you threaten me with your leaving.
Cause you casted your line too many times And you're just about out of string I've been stringing you on with my ***** paws.
And as we embrace this street with our youth I could tell you one thing to hear But it might be a different feeling from year to year
And maybe when age takes it's tole I'll tell you I've just been living in fear I've just been living in fear, let me tell you I've just been waiting for the right time to hear.
