One longs to know the truth of living, not so clear
You want to know how a singer's song cuts so deep
Wondering why one must feel pain
Wondering why a heart breaks
Thought of you both and I'm wishing you forward
Selfishly warming to the closeness of a time far away bye bye
Catching the corner of my eye on the corner of thine
I used to talk to my baby about the growing and unknowing
I would ask for the grace of mine so smart, self assured and understanding
My mother and step mother and best friend wonder what your plans are
An old pal here she is with your clear, concise answer
Meanwhile you are dying to leave the centre of your own
Won't you please help me to travel to another and wave hello like
Is there anything I can do to help you too? I'd like to do that for you.
If you're gonna make a change, maybe make a big one?
Wouldn't that be good, wouldn't that be right?
If you're gonna give it away, maybe give it all away?
Why on earth would you send back all of that crap?
I'm thinkin' if it's not yours then it's just trash.
Is that the truth? Well, the truth is bad.
Is that the truth? Well the truth is sad.
