I think about it all the time   But don’t know what to say   When the room is cold and empty   And you look at me that way   Should I sing about the babies   playing pool   Or how ‘bout all the times I broke   the rules   One time when I was younger   I woke up in a slump   I was staying at a friend’s house   And my mother picked me up   I told her I was crying in the womb   She said she felt it once a week   at noon   And I know that   It’s ok   For reality to blow away   So hear me when I say   That life is a crashin’ wave   One day I was walking   through the woods   The trees were high and mighty   But I hardly even noticed them   ‘Cause I heard two lovers fighting   The argument would fluctuate   From scared to nervous quiet   My love is fadin’ fast, she said   Oh no, he said   Am I it?   They cried and kissed and walked each other home   And I went to do some fighting of   my own   And I know that   It’s ok   For reality to blow away   So hear me when I say   That life is a crashin’ wave
