Lately words fail me While life and love Sky jump the desert Raw and emotionally drained From daily reground hash I keep waiting For my feet to reach The bottom of the barrel But some monkey Keeps pushing me back up Makes me float on my back Pinching and tickling me Saying Smile Laugh Damn it I've lost my sense of humor That lightness of being The more I learn Of this world The sadder it becomes Have I been going Through this life with blinders To suddenly wake up To see the naked bumblers These times are tougher Than we've known Since Vietnam Here we go again I'll stop I need a breeze to soothe me With an ocean surf To wash my tired feet I'm exhausted Baby And with what you do I don't know how You get through it I'm so overwhelmed With the emotions I've bottled up That when I get to the gulf I'm pitching them all in All the frustration and anger With the hair trigger grin Starting fresh I love you my Darlin It's the way it is It's the way it has always been (c)bk |
