Yon Yonsson/The Ant in Amber
God grant me serenity, to accept the things
That I know I can't change
And blow with the wind
We're fossilized in amber
Just like a bug, so it goes
They say love is a two-way street
But then they'll drive you down a one-way road
And throw you off into the deep end
And expect you to swim
When you were just a baby
You had no control
But the water did flow
I have seen some things you won't believe
I've been on the moon,
An attraction in a zoo
Don't tell me you know more than I do
Barbara why can't you see dear?
There's nothing for you to control here
You can't stop the wave before it breaks
I have seen some things you won't believe
From blame I am immune,
I've seen what man will do
Don't tell me that none of this is true
God grant me serenity to accept the things
That I know I can't change
And laugh at our 'luck'
None of that will matter
As far as I see
But I can't claim to know
Daughter dear I see tears upon your face
Reminds me of tears from your mother
I wish I had the power to dry them before they reach your eyes
That I know I can't change
And blow with the wind
We're fossilized in amber
Just like a bug, so it goes
They say love is a two-way street
But then they'll drive you down a one-way road
And throw you off into the deep end
And expect you to swim
When you were just a baby
You had no control
But the water did flow
I have seen some things you won't believe
I've been on the moon,
An attraction in a zoo
Don't tell me you know more than I do
Barbara why can't you see dear?
There's nothing for you to control here
You can't stop the wave before it breaks
I have seen some things you won't believe
From blame I am immune,
I've seen what man will do
Don't tell me that none of this is true
God grant me serenity to accept the things
That I know I can't change
And laugh at our 'luck'
None of that will matter
As far as I see
But I can't claim to know
Daughter dear I see tears upon your face
Reminds me of tears from your mother
I wish I had the power to dry them before they reach your eyes
