| It was a dark and stormy night
|
| Puddles of rain reflected the stop lights
|
| The world fell asleep, but I’m wide awake
|
| Listening to traffic on the highway, from half a mile away
|
| I’m looking up in my family, kaleidoscope
|
| I’m trying to float with some harmony, hit some higher notes
|
| And I don’t know if I’m supposed to cover your eyes
|
| But I chose to hold your hand and watch the sun rise
|
| Live within the gift
|
| Recognize the warnings
|
| Memorize the answers
|
| This is a recording
|
| I love you to the moon and back
|
| There’s nothing new 'bout that
|
| It’s just a proven fact
|
| And somewhere my dad is listening to the engine purr
|
| Someday I’m gonna finish my verse
|
| I inherited that free-refills-type thirst
|
| I’m counting on my children to break this curse
|
| It goes
|
| I don’t know how much time we have left
|
| But I promise you that when I breathe my last breath
|
| I’mma exhale and remember your birth
|
| It’s never too late to get some heaven on earth
|
| I don’t know how much time we have left
|
| But I promise you that when I breathe my last breath
|
| I’mma exhale and remember your birth
|
| It’s never too late to get some heaven on earth
|
| It’s funny right
|
| Our only reason that we’re trying to find this money is to buy us some time
|
| Rise and shine, I gotta weigh these fish
|
| To educate my kids, on how to bait they lines
|
| I wonder if this is how the aliens felt
|
| Just 'cause the hate theyself, don’t mean they change theyself, nah
|
| Still chasing after gratification, at this point I ain’t even know what that
|
| would take
|
| Don’t make a mess in your drawers just to get some applause
|
| You don’t wanna be the bullet that your ex has dodged (haha)
|
| Another bumper sticker, but it’s enough to consider not to jump in the river
|
| I can play the xylophone out of a pile of bones
|
| But sometimes can’t even find the stones to dial your phone
|
| I built a whole kingdom out of styrofoam
|
| And you can have it when I’m gone
|
| I don’t know how much time we have left
|
| But I promise you that when I breathe my last breath
|
| I’mma exhale and remember your birth
|
| It’s never too late to get some heaven on earth
|
| I don’t know how much time we have left
|
| But I promise you that when I breathe my last breath
|
| I’mma exhale and remember your birth
|
| It’s never too late to get some heaven on earth |
