Tekst :

I was young and so was she
Love didn t stay a mystery for very long
We could do no wrong
Then she called to say
She was late
So we took a little drive upstate
And took care of that
Yeah, we just took care of that

Now I m looking back on
Some of my decisions
Now that it s much too late to change
How a father could have held his son
If I could undo what s been done
But I guess everyone is living
With water and bridges

My old man
He had it rough
Cause like his daddy
When he drank too much
He d get mean
And take it out on me
So with angry words
I was gone
And I never even tried to come back home
The night he died
Momma said he apologized

Now I m looking back on
Some of my decisions
Now that it s much too late to change
How a father could have held his son
If I could undo what s been done
But I guess everyone is living
With water and bridges

We could all go crazy from
The things that only time can numb
I guess that s why everyone is given
Water and bridges
Water and bridges

Tekst :

Trees are for climbing
And holes are for digging
And friends are for when your having fun
And hearts are for when you want to love someone
Dogs are for hugging
And cats are for putting up with
Birds are just looking at
And heads are for when you have to wear a hat
Dads are for being with
And doing things
And helping out Mom
And Moms are for talking to
And telling things that you can’t tell anyone
Ears are for hearing your father call
And eyes are for seeing when it’s dark
Legs are for when you have to run
And hearts are for when you want to love someone
Brothers always take your things
And break your things
And eat your candy
And sisters always tell on you
And they cry a lot
When they got no reason to
Feet are for putting your shoes on
And hair is for looking nice at school
And hands are for folding when your book is done
And hearts are for when you want to love someone

Tekst :

Baby, I bought wine and roses on my way home
Yeah, I know we can t afford it but life doesn t last too long
This world has gone half crazy
And knocked us both to our knees
I m fumbling for the words to try and tell ya I love you for hangin on to me

When anyone else would ve been long gone
Packed it up and headed back home
And not a soul would blame you after what I put you through
Yeah, anyone else would ve gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, anyone else, anyone else but you

Mayday baby, all the rivets popped loose, it s a total tailspin
Too much grindstone, too little time with you
Girl, you know it s wearing thin
Baby, let s trade in these teardrops for warm kisses on skin
You got a drawer full IOUs and it s high time you called those things in

When anyone else would ve been long gone
Packed it up and headed back home
And not a soul would blame you after what I put you through
Yeah, anyone else would ve gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, anyone else, anyone else but you

You ve passed up so many chances to walk right out the door
Instead of dodging a champagne cork and watchin the wet clothes fall to the floor
When anyone else would ve been long gone
Packed it up and headed back home

And you can hide behind a Cheshire cat grin
But you know it s true, yeah anyone else would ve gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, anyone else, anyone but you
Girl, anyone but you

We went down to the May parade, mumbled words under my breath
there is something i ve been meaning to do, i am dying to tellyou
i ve been so damned tired
it went down at the May parde, bitter words under my breath
there is something i ve been...

I wanna have the same last dream again
The one where I wake up and I m alive
Just as the four walls close me within
My eyes are opened up with pure sunlight

I m the first to know
My dearest friends
Even if your hope has burned with time
Anything that s dead shall be...

People said we couldn´t play
The called us foul-mothed yobs
But the only notes that really count
Are the ones that come in wads

They all drowned when the air turned blue
´Cos we didn´t give a toss
Filthy lucre, ain´t nothing new...

Det är oklart ute nu
är det så svårt att förstå
vad var det som gick so fel
mellan oss två
Jag är så frusen nu
jag kan inte känna min själ
mitt hjärta har blivit till is
och ändå så är det varmt (är det varmt

Det är oklart ute nu
är det så svårt att förstå
vad var...

We have been in tune with luck
We slept through it
Taking hits off the surface (surface)
Its too hard to swallow it
The judgement is concentrating
On everything below.

(Was it long enough or did he wake you up from your sleeping?)

[ref]
I ve overheard it once
This has gone on...
