|
| So drop your hat and sit for awhile
|
| Bridge
|
| Ya see, every now and again we struggle with our past
|
| We try to stare it in the eye and pray that
|
| it won’t last Most questions that get answered,
|
| they never make much sense
|
| But I decided that I care,
|
| and I’ll get right down to it And I said
|
| I’ve stopped sleepin',
|
| I told myself I’d never close my eyes again
|
| I’m not sleepin',
|
| I’m doin’now the best that I can

|
| Nobody will stand up, not even on a dare.

|
| It’s funny how we fool them with tears behind our smile
|
| So tried and true, we plow right through and hope it’s worth the while
|
| Most questions that get answered,
|
| they never make much sense
|
| But I decided that I care,
|
| and I’ll get right down to it! |
