Lyrics Sincerely - Deb Talan

Sincerely

He said, «Go 'round the back way»
He said, «Avoid the road more traveled.»
He said, «Hold tight to your smile
When it’s dark outside, and you so fragile
You won’t see the ground
But it will rise beneath
You are steady on your feet
Until it hits you in the teeth.»
You will know it when you’ve gone too far;
Your sight grows dim and narrow
You cannot see the stars above you
They love you in their far away way
They ask you, sincerely, to stay
She said, «Look up, once in a while.»
She said, «Remember things that always remain;
Blossoms in the Spring, birds remember to sing
And you will do the same.»
Buildings hurtle by the train as you ride
You don’t know where, you don’t know why
All you can do is dry your eyes, cry like a little child
Sometimes it takes a while to be born
