Quiet Conversation
Seven years waitin for a call
What's a couple more in the scheme of it all?
A quiet conversation
'tween the shapes in the clouds
How little they affect a man on the ground
A bottle of lightning for sale on TV
Three easy payments
You could make em in your sleep
If you never find the time
If nothin ever changed
Would you look back on your life
Try to give it all away?
Way beyond the map searching the unknown
Finding the direction you needed 20 years ago
Walkin alone to the sound of your defeat
Carryin a wisdom that nobody needs
What good is a warning
When there's no one there to hear?
Now that it's too late
It's finally clear
If you never find the time
If nothin ever changed
Would you look back on your life
Wish it had gone another way?
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Are all the things that could have been
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Are all the things that could have been
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Are all the things that should have been
If you never find the time
If nothin ever changed
Would you look back on your life
Wish it had gone another way?
(spoken word)
Possibilities are impossible
Understanding is misunderstood
Hope is hopeless
But every belief I have
And everything I've heard in life leads to this
There are others in the world
With bigger mountains to climb
With bigger oceans to swim
With bigger divides to cross
My mountains are speed bumps in the road
My oceans are narrow streams
My divides are cracks in the sidewalk
I am blessed beyond measure
I am abounding in love
I am luck to be me
What's a couple more in the scheme of it all?
A quiet conversation
'tween the shapes in the clouds
How little they affect a man on the ground
A bottle of lightning for sale on TV
Three easy payments
You could make em in your sleep
If you never find the time
If nothin ever changed
Would you look back on your life
Try to give it all away?
Way beyond the map searching the unknown
Finding the direction you needed 20 years ago
Walkin alone to the sound of your defeat
Carryin a wisdom that nobody needs
What good is a warning
When there's no one there to hear?
Now that it's too late
It's finally clear
If you never find the time
If nothin ever changed
Would you look back on your life
Wish it had gone another way?
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Are all the things that could have been
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Are all the things that could have been
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Are all the things that should have been
If you never find the time
If nothin ever changed
Would you look back on your life
Wish it had gone another way?
(spoken word)
Possibilities are impossible
Understanding is misunderstood
Hope is hopeless
But every belief I have
And everything I've heard in life leads to this
There are others in the world
With bigger mountains to climb
With bigger oceans to swim
With bigger divides to cross
My mountains are speed bumps in the road
My oceans are narrow streams
My divides are cracks in the sidewalk
I am blessed beyond measure
I am abounding in love
I am luck to be me
