Mm, mm

How many lessons must one person learn?
How many reasons nobody knows?
If you're thinking of leaving, I left your keys there behind
The ups and downs
The all-arounds
The dollar times
Tears water down the hours and clear out the gold

Bad days aside, I'd like to see us growin' old
I've realized in life, it's all just the same
'Cause everything comes to go away
Trials and tribulations are messing with me
So I have to keep walking on the other side of your street
Would you say hello if I just wait?
Or is there nothing more to say?
Tears water down the hours and clear out the gold

Bad days aside, I'd like to see us growin' old
I've realized in life, it's all just the same
'Cause everything comes to go away
You're changing with the seasons, you're walking on the snow
Oh my love, I lift my winter coat
Your hands held up high, you drop them down low
Hypnotized and paralyzed by every word you spoke
Tears water down the hours and clear out the gold
Bad days aside, I'd like to see us growin' old
I've realized in life, it's all just the same
'Cause everything comes to go away
'Cause everything comes to go away
Everything comes to go away
