I’ve got trouble in myself
Trouble in the world
Trouble in the thought of
Seven would-be lovers
To try to count residuals
Would waste my time
But I’ve kept them all with me
And that’s a fault of mine
Back to the present
One is tall and ageless
A year more than me
But I think that would be fine
We’ve circled to the age
Where a year makes a difference
All the options knocked
And we’ve yet to reach the door
In my life I’ve seen changes
Truth and lies, sunshine and rain
No more time to worry ‘bout failure
Wake up, wake up, this is your life!
She was there years ago
Remember how that went?
She came back this birthday
And did it all again
I know the short one’s crazy
The other’s hooked on Christ
I won’t be the other guy
Wear a habit, be a bride
Well, one is just a friend
The other gives good write
One gives me laughter
With sweetness on the side
Then she gives me bitterness
From out of the blue
I don’t need that time bomb
We haven’t even …
Ooh, in my life I’ve seen changes
Truth and lies, sunshine and rain
No more time to worry ‘bout failure
Wake up, wake up, this is your life!
Ooh, how it worked for me then
I won’t take it anymore
Can’t take it anymore
With all this trouble in the air
I can’t clean my room
I’ve got a little help but don’t know what to do
I’m not helpless
Just misdirected
Pleasure’s not fancy
In a life delayed
So I’ll eliminate the angst not the girls
Talk to the women
Turn off my phone
Get up in the morning
Not the afternoon
Now I’m just talking
Tomorrow I’ll do
In my life I’ve seen changes
Truth and lies, sunshine and rain
No more time to worry ‘bout failure
Wake up, wake up, this is your life!
