I tried to write a song and keep it 3 minutes long |
|
Get in, get out, nobody gets hurt |
|
And I tried a thousand times to fit God between the lines |
|
But I'm finding out that doesn't really work |
|
I just don't have the words to say 'cause words only get in my way |
|
I must apologize, I have the hardest time |
|
Finding something to define a God that I can't define |
|
And even if I could, it would take way too long |
|
If all I've got's a 3 minute song |
|
I've got a hundred metaphors and if I had a million more |
|
I could never ever seem to sum this up |
|
Besides how can some melody communicate eternity |
|
It's like trying to fit the ocean in a cup |
|
I never find the words to say 'cause words only get in my way |
|
I must apologize, I have the hardest time |
|
Finding something to define a God that I can't define |
|
And even if I could, it would take way too long |
|
If all I've got's a 3 minute song |
|
I would like to dumb this down to 3 chords or maybe 4 |
|
But I've tried and I can't and I won't 'cause there will always be more |
|
So I apologize, I can't seem to get it right |
|
I must apologize, I have the hardest time |
|
Finding something to define a God I just can't define |
|
And even if I could, it would take way too long |
|
If all I've got's a 3 minute song |
|
Well, all I've got's a 3 minute song, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh |
