I can’t sit still
Oh my sweet daffodil
Well it’s been a long time loving and the loving’s pretty good so far
Climb up that hill
We’ll make camp by the mill
Well it’s been a long day going and the going never gets too hard
What do I do
What do I do ‘cause I’m in love with you
What do I say
What do I say ‘cause I feel okay
Yes I feel okay
Yes I feel okay
I step into the river
I cannot step in twice
For I am not the same man
And it flows into the night
But we’ll cross the shallow water
We’ll ride into a town
On Friday
I’ll see this to the end
On Friday we’ll leave again

You tell me that the future, it isn’t now
I’m wasting my breath trying to figure out how
But I just wanna give you all that you want
Make a little more cash and chase the sun
I’m doing it right this time
I swore that I’d do it
I’m taking it all in strideI’m doing it right this time
August was a dream, we were living big
Sitting on the front porch, smoking my mids
With your feet on my lap, yeah we read the same book
Trying to cook you dinner but you know I can’t cook, oh no
I’m doing it right this time
I swore that I’d do it
I’m taking it all in stride
I think it’s a shoo-in
I’m doing it right this time
I’m doing it right this time
At the subway station
For the northbound train
I turn and say, “Oh Grace, I think I feel insane”
And you touch my shoulder
Say, “There’s nothing we can’t do”
I’m doing it right this time
I swore that I’d do itI’m taking it all in stride
I’m doing it right this time
I swore that I’d do it
I’m taking it all in stride
I think it’s a shoo-in
I’m doing it right this time
I’m doing it right this time
I’m doing it right this time

Met an improv guy at a bachelor party
Hit the 8 ball in and I said I was sorry
He just bought land in Poughkeepsie
That’s when they started to hit me
From a clear Ziploc in a mystery backpack
Real sitcom, we were stuck in the laugh track
Tangled up, wrangled, and wasted
Yeah I’m never going back to The Station
And it was a long night
Turned left at the wrong light
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night
A half-empty High Life
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night, long night
Spill out the bar, someone’s getting arrested
Evan had a theory and we dared him to test it
He started doing backflips
In some old motorcycle helmet
Blue Mountain Road and the moon was rising
Never star tripped and I wanted to try it
Holding our breath in
Spinning and spinning
And it was a long night
Turned left at the wrong light
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night
A half-empty High Life
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night, long night
And we all came down together
In the end
And it was a long night
Turned left at the wrong light
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night
A half-empty High Life
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night
And it was a long night
Turned left at the wrong light
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night
A half-empty High Life
But I’m feeling alright
Yeah, it was a long night
Yeah, it was a long night
Yeah, it was a long night
Yeah, it was a long night
Yeah, it was a long night
Yeah, it was a long night
Yeah, it was a long night…

Time is written on the water
Time is written on the beach
I was just a ship in a bottle
Washed out to sea
I could have been a doctor
A star on the silver screen
Oh, what’s it to me now
The things that I could be
I lived a hundred ghost lives, packed ‘em up in boxes
I walked a thousand miles in other people’s shoes
I’ve got a million-sided die and when I toss it
It’s always coming up you
Time is written on the water
Time is written on the beach
All of those things sound pretty
But what do they really mean
I lived a hundred ghost lives, packed ‘em up in boxes
I walked a thousand miles in other people’s shoes
I’ve got a million-sided die and when I toss it
It’s always coming up you
It’s gonna take time
(Ooh, it’s gonna take time)
It’s gonna take time
(Ooh, it’s gonna take time)
It’s gonna take time
(Ooh, it’s gonna take time)
Two feet in time
Time is written in your wrinkles
Time is all we really need
I, I’m written on your face when
You look at me
I lived a hundred ghost lives, packed ‘em up in boxes
I walked a thousand miles in other people’s shoes
I’ve got a million-sided die and when I toss it
It’s always coming up you

A mourning dove, my fire escape
In mourning for his lifelong mate
He coos a quiet, soft refrain
Of matters of the heart
You bring out the best in me
The best clichés, obsessively
You’re fast asleep but pressed to me
I hold you in the dark
Hmm
Uh huh
Hmm
Uh huh
You and me, we knock around
What used to be our stomping ground
The West Village is over now
But we don’t really sweat it
8 ½, great reviews
Not so great to me and you
A lot confused, Fellini broods
I guess we didn’t get it
It takes time to
Speak my mind
So
You can break my heart
You can take my star
You can steal my bike
You can wreck my car
You can rob my store
Have a bite or more
Eat the whole damn thing
Baby, what’s mine is yours
I like when you dress it up
Like high heels and a dress and stuff
You say, “I don’t wanna mess this up
If I’m a disappointment”
Well that’s so crazy I could cry
‘Cause you’re my baby, I’m your guy
So let’s just sing sweet lullabies
And cancel our appointments
It takes time to
Speak my mind
So
You can break my heart
You can take my star
You can steal my bike
You can wreck my car
You can rob my store
Have a bite or more
Eat the whole damn thing
‘Cause baby, what’s mine is yours
You can break my heart
You can stop, I’ll start
I will show my hand
That’s the greatest part
You can take my before
I will keep no score
I’ll drink you like wine
‘Cause baby, what’s yours is mine
And baby, what’s mine is yours

Beer pong seshing on a Friday night
And hot dogs on the 4th of July
Getting dressed up for my best friend’s wedding
My sister called me when Oliver died
I sat on the floor and cried and cried
I never saw my hands so unsteady
Sadness, running like a sine wave, I
Madness, all of us stepping in time
On the axis, listen as they harmonize
In little twists of fate
Sadness is a sine wave
Foosball hustle with a valentine sheen
And crushing on you in Joshua Tree
Fresh cut fruit and stars like kisses
All choked up you turned to me
You said, “I feel lost, it’s hard to breathe
Am I not measuring up to my wishes?”
Sadness, running like a sine wave, I
Madness, all of us stepping in time
On the axis, listen as they harmonize
In little twists of fate
Sadness is a sine wave
Zig zag of a hundred tacks
Some people you can’t get back
But like all things, it comes in waves
And this too man, it will pass
It’s a knife twist when you’re breaking up
It’s a rock bottom of a bottomless cup
It’s a phone call when you feel insane
There’s a throughline
Baby, we call it love
And it’s enough
Sadness, running like a sine wave, I
Madness, all of us stepping in time
Sadness, running like a sine wave, I
Madness, all of us stepping in time
On the axis, listen as they harmonize
Like a cactus, weathering the rain and shine
‘Cause the fact is, nothing is a straight line
It’s little twists of fate
Sadness is a sine wave
