One day on one tombstone, all our names should go   We shared a life   The beauty and the ugliness   Through all the pain and death   Birth of a child      CHORUS   Thanks for throwing me the line   When I've lost sight of it   You're the only reason I can exhale   And now suddenly, oh, when I find    That the outcome's just not right   From what I just did   You're the only thing I can breathe through      And here my sweet friends, a few lines of poetry   It may be laughable, but thanks for laughing with me   And here's to the next time I wrap myself around a tree   I know that you'll be there with bells on   Yeah, to pull me off      CHORUS      You can tell me a story I've heard before   I'll insult your mother   Then you can tell me where to go      CHORUS (x2)
