It's a thin, thin sky, can't always hold me down It's a long, long day by the time the night rolls around Now it's all hashed out and we've shaken on the deal If it all came down to yes or no I would tell them this was real I would tell them And it's a crowded room, you can't know everyone's name This is a big, big world, darling and I don't think you can feel all it's pain That's why we're all spread out and we each face our chosen few If it all came down to fight or flight I would take them on with you I would take them all on with you But it never sounds true when I try to say That I hope I find you at the end of my day is a living thing And each one leaves me changed One by one they breathe into me And is it any wonder, darling and I seem strange? And now it's all adrift and we're moving though we don't know how 'Cause it all comes down to sink or swim And I am swimming for it now I am swimming for it now, I am swimming for it now
