Avenue Fourteen
It's after eight,
and thoughts are thoughtless and so true.
Would you take a drink with me, my dear?
Shall I answer for you?
Close your eyes,
and wish to be again.
Be here again. Again?
Not all good things come to those who wait.
I see, in their eyes,
all the words they want to say.
I know there's no time
until we lose our way.
But, you know, the devil's in the details,
and today was just like any other day.
He said, 'I wrote these words for you -
I changed the stars tonight.'
He didn't mean to,
but although she's a strange kind,
she was always on his mind.
Do you give a care for the girl dressed in red?
Would you spend your time for the thoughts in her head?
Would you understand if she said,
'I can't do today, I'll just stay in my bed'?
Are you dying to meet the people we see?
Is it cold out here? Out here with me?
I give a damn because I am breathing.
I see in their eyes,
all the words they want to say.
I know there's no time,
Until we lose our way.
But, you know, the devil's in the details,
and today was just like any other day.
Are you watching?
Are you waiting?
Are you breathing for you?
Are you hearing?
Are you hurting?
Are you learning what's true?
Close your eyes and wish to be again.
Not all good things come to those who wait.
I see in their eyes,
all the words they want to say.
I know there's no time,
Until we lose our way.
But, you know, the devil's in the details,
and today was just like any other day.
And I love every other day.
and thoughts are thoughtless and so true.
Would you take a drink with me, my dear?
Shall I answer for you?
Close your eyes,
and wish to be again.
Be here again. Again?
Not all good things come to those who wait.
I see, in their eyes,
all the words they want to say.
I know there's no time
until we lose our way.
But, you know, the devil's in the details,
and today was just like any other day.

and today was just like any other day.
And I love every other day.
