Like the memory from your mother's house From before you got too old Like the feeling from a photograph Before the meanings all got told The words I say can be silver But what's left unsaid can be gold So get to know me once I go away Maybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted town Or maybe 'cause am love of mine, really let me down But, the only time that I am lonely, is when others are around I just never end up knowing what to say Then I wanted someone to clean me up I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to understand me I'd have so much more to say I want you to make the days move easy I took everything I thought From what it takes to be a man We need words to be put To what we do not understand While you lean into the echoes And you do not raise a hand Oh woman, help me see it like it is If I wanted someone to clean me up I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to understand me I'd have so much more to say I want you to make the days move easy If I wanted someone to clean me up I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to understand me I'd have so much more to say I want you to make the days move easy Oh, If I wanted someone to clean me up I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to cut me down I'd have handed you the blade I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy I want you to make the days move easy
