| I just want to throw away to get me through today
|
| Nothing real to hold on to, nothing meant to stay
|
| Only till the sun comes up then cast down on the wave
|
| Yeah, I just want to throw away to get me through today
|
| I don’t need no fairy tales, I just want a start
|
| A footstep on the lowest rung, a patch on this old heart
|
| Won’t you put a compass in my hand, and send me on my way
|
| Cause I just want to throw away to get me through today
|
| Built a house on Lovers Lane and now it’s fallen down
|
| Couldn’t stand against the wind and built on shaky ground
|
| All I was, I was for her, now since she went away
|
| Would you deny a throwaway, or to help me through today
|
| Could be some way down the line before a day will come
|
| When I have faith enough to say, hey, this could be the one
|
| Till the end of winter comes and the gold kicks through the grey
|
| I just want to throw away to help me through today
|
| To help me through today |
