| Love is simple when it’s broken
|
| It’s the softest words ever spoken
|
| And I said I was kidding, but I was jokin'
|
| Now I’m twisted up and lost in thought
|
| But I remember what I was thinking
|
| All those feelings always sinking
|
| All that waiting to take that stage
|
| And the feeling weak, let 'em wait
|
| Hey Steven, how’s Sally?
|
| How’re the peaks and how’re the valleys?
|
| I’ve been down some, but I’ll rally
|
| Have you found something to sink your teeth into?
|
| Keep it even, keep her happy
|
| Don’t be afraid to love her madly
|
| And she will steer you and keep you afloat
|
| As you row that boat until you both let go someday
|
| So is it simple? |
| Being older?
|
| We’ve got all these kids upon our shoulders
|
| See, I just get softer, the world gets colder
|
| Now I’m twisted up and lost in thought
|
| But do you remember? |
| The night got late?
|
| Equations were recalculating in my veins
|
| And you saved my life in the final round
|
| Some kind of paper cup tea, some hell-bath festival ground
|
| Hey Steven, how’s Sally?
|
| How’re the peaks and how’re the valleys?
|
| And I’ve been down some, but I’ll rally
|
| Have you found something to sink your teeth into?
|
| Keep it even, keep her happy
|
| Don’t be afraid to love her madly
|
| We should recap, lay it on me
|
| The good the bad, the in-between
|
| Hey Steven, are you happy?
|
| And how’re the kids, man? |
| How’s that family?
|
| They cannot spare you from the valleys
|
| But they will give you something you can lean into
|
| So keep it even, keep her happy
|
| Don’t be afraid to love her madly
|
| 'Cause she will steer you and keep you afloat
|
| As you row that boat until you both let go someday |
