To Robin, Or No One At All
Yeah, you know life ain't no chocolate box
Shit ain't sweet so much as half the time
I'd love a word with that confectioner
Dreamed up the toothaches that I've had in mine
Guess I'm lucky to have had my pick
Robin, you were one of the good ones
I've wasted years making myself sick
Searching for the flavor I tasted once
Though I know that I'm still in your heart
Wonder how it ever got so full
How can one heart hold so much
How is that even possible
Getting older ain't always a gas, but
It ain't the same as getting closer to death
So maybe I forgive you after all
For stopping me from destroying myself
Put away all of my best laid plans
Figure everything will take its course
I fall asleep sitting in the sun
Or lie there in the dark, awake of course
Found some scraps I think could be redeemed
I guess it happens to the worst of them
I've given up trying to be free
Instead I'm trying to be worth a damn
Though I know that I'm still in your heart
Wonder how it ever got so full
How can one heart hold so much
How is that even possible
Getting older ain't always a gas, but
It ain't the same as getting closer to death
So maybe I forgive you after all
For stopping me from destroying myself
Shit ain't sweet so much as half the time
I'd love a word with that confectioner
Dreamed up the toothaches that I've had in mine
Guess I'm lucky to have had my pick
Robin, you were one of the good ones
I've wasted years making myself sick
Searching for the flavor I tasted once
Though I know that I'm still in your heart
Wonder how it ever got so full
How can one heart hold so much
How is that even possible
Getting older ain't always a gas, but
It ain't the same as getting closer to death
So maybe I forgive you after all
For stopping me from destroying myself
Put away all of my best laid plans
Figure everything will take its course
I fall asleep sitting in the sun
Or lie there in the dark, awake of course
Found some scraps I think could be redeemed
I guess it happens to the worst of them
I've given up trying to be free
Instead I'm trying to be worth a damn
Though I know that I'm still in your heart
Wonder how it ever got so full
How can one heart hold so much
How is that even possible
Getting older ain't always a gas, but
It ain't the same as getting closer to death
So maybe I forgive you after all
For stopping me from destroying myself
