Here you are, chasing angels   Look for another idea to hold under your thumb   And squeeze an ounce of courage from a thousand words   You'd think you'd heard enough      Try not to try   It's a lesson hard   Blind faith will scatter the stars   Tonight can be a beginning      Here I am, running over   Half of a lifetime, I'm scraping up a trace of youth   A lazy child can know the truth and touch the moon   It's here in front of you      Try not to try   It's a simple creed   With sense as a sly enemy   Tonight can be a beginning      Here we are, missing moments   So many details, the never-ending figure-out   Too weary now to talk about the way we feel   The night, it reels us in      Try not to try   It's a sacred art   Gripping the slippery stars   Tonight can be a beginning
