To restate the obvious I know, it seems I've lost control But I recall a simpler time While walking to the grocery store When you turned and said to me You're happy as you'll ever be Your unabashed naivete I tied my shoes and smiled at the pavement Thought I saw you buying gasoline But I guess it isn't unlike me To strain reality Besides, that night it was raining pretty heavy Music's gonna heal my broken heart I know that things can fall apart So quick and by the time I knew I'd lost most everything but You were always there for me An angel sitting in that tree Showed me how a man could be Graceful as he falls and hits the pavement
