Upper Hand
The distance to the end
Is closer now than it's ever been
The road we traveled far
All the lights and sights we saw
No room left on the pages
We filled 'em up and painted some
Though the book, it may never be read
Oh, by anyone, oh, anyone but me
And I hope the people are smiling
And I hope that today and every day is grand
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
But you know, something that I never had
Was the upper hand
Lonely ship on the horizon
Silhouette fading out
Bright lights make for dark shadows
The lines, once defined, getting blurry now
And I hope the people are smiling
Oh, how I always wanted to be like one of them
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
Oh, but you know, something that I never had
Was the upper hand
Upper hand
Help to carry me home
Help to carry me home
Oh, help to carry me home, yeah
Carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home
Just need a few of you, a few of you
Maybe just the two of you, two of you
Is closer now than it's ever been
The road we traveled far
All the lights and sights we saw
No room left on the pages
We filled 'em up and painted some
Though the book, it may never be read
Oh, by anyone, oh, anyone but me
And I hope the people are smiling
And I hope that today and every day is grand
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
But you know, something that I never had
Was the upper hand
Lonely ship on the horizon
Silhouette fading out
Bright lights make for dark shadows
The lines, once defined, getting blurry now
And I hope the people are smiling
Oh, how I always wanted to be like one of them
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
Oh, but you know, something that I never had
Was the upper hand
Upper hand
Help to carry me home
Help to carry me home
Oh, help to carry me home, yeah
Carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home
Just need a few of you, a few of you
Maybe just the two of you, two of you
