Learning Curve |
I had a good dream- |
We built a home. |
It was far from perfect, |
But we made it our own. |
We lived a good life, |
We gave and we borrowed. |
It was far from perfect, |
But we made it our own. |
When everything around us changed, we felt okay. |
No learning curve could ever bend us too far out of shape. |
When we took one step forward, and five steps behind, |
We were still more than able to walk a straight line. |
We had a white picket fence in the front yard, |
Where our grass was plenty green. |
Every window in our house |
Welcomed in the sun’s company. |
We had hardwood floors and unlocked doors, |
Our glass was plenty full. |
Though our bills were only barely met, |
Our hearts were plenty whole. |
When everything around us changed, we felt okay. |
No learning curve could ever bend us too far out of shape. |
When darkness was the price of light, we weren’t afraid. |
For the time we’ve spent was more than worth |
Any interest that we’ve paid. |
We lived a good life, a good life, |
When my eyes were closed. |
Though the question marks were all the same |
And the burdens never left, |
We gambled everything we loved, |
As though there was some kind of safety net. |
When everything around us changed, we felt okay. |
No learning curve could ever bend us too far out of shape. |
When darkness was the price of light, we weren’t afraid. |
For the time we’ve spent was more than worth |
Any interest that we’ve paid. |
And when my good dream |
Came to an end, |
I woke up more than ready to bend. |
