[00:08.81] Well I bit on my lip' and I kicked at my toes
[00:13.36] No' I don't need your lecture cause your lecture won't show
[00:17.70] That you told me so I told you so
[00:25.13] But I would have managed' I would have been fine
[00:29.43] I'd do it myself and I'd do it just my way'
[00:33.69] I'm a big man for thinking just so.
[00:37.07]
[00:40.21] But somebody told me that your mother was born
[00:48.93] Wa-wa-wandering woman with a spirit so sworn of the riverside
[00:57.57] And it never surprised me but it meant that my love was immobilized
[01:04.22] Well' it meant that my love was immobilized
[01:10.84] Cause when it comes' it comes when it does.
[01:15.72]
[01:22.21] But you came in the middle and you fell in my hands
[01:26.69] Oh a' wonderful woman and an average man.
[01:30.95] See that makes me the lucky man
[01:38.57] I won't be deserving' but I won't be denied
[01:42.67] See' I fell in this position' I will still teach my kids pride
[01:46.77] Because failure's a part of it all
[01:54.12] And if failure don't hurt then failure don't work at all
[02:03.01]
[02:03.29] But somebody told me that your nephew was born
[02:11.73] Oh' a beautiful baby' so smart and so sure of his little self
[02:21.20] And in a wonderful way he was making me feel so small
[02:28.40] Was making me feel so small' was making me feel so small.
[02:39.71] And I don't think I've felt this before.
[02:47.21]
[02:51.03] In all the reasons to come' well they override my body and'
[03:04.08] I point to the sun' cause where it's warm is where the wilderness grows
[03:14.27] And it grows' and it grows 'til it all becomes nothing
[03:20.09] And nothing is left as you know.
[03:22.94]
[03:26.83] (We walked it for a thousand years' with broken eyes and salted ears
[03:35.85] Complaining 'bout the weather like we ever had a choice.
[03:45.00] Through all the noise and self abuse' you waited for your fill of truth
[03:53.79] Oh I'm terrified I'll achieve nothing at all.)
[03:59.83]
[00:08.81] Well I bit on my lip' and I kicked at my toes
[00:13.36] No' I don' t need your lecture cause your lecture won' t show
[00:17.70] That you told me so I told you so
[00:25.13] But I would have managed' I would have been fine
[00:29.43] I' d do it myself and I' d do it just my way'
[00:33.69] I' m a big man for thinking just so.
[00:37.07]
