i don't always make sense

that's how i let you make it yourself.






It always starts at a gentle pace
We know slow and steady
Wins the race
But some days we close our eyes
we go

faster

And I speed up
I run real fast
With my baby in tow
Baby’s goin real slow
And next thing you know I’ve
tripped I’ve

fallen

did I say that
did you hear me too
baby what it do
which one’s the fool

if I get-up will it hurt a little?
Or not at

all?


You can be the stop sign
Like I was coming at you at 65
(brakes not on anti-lock)
You can be the sunshine
Like the cloud never came
(‘cos we’re all allowed to be a little lame)


it’s hard to tell
if I fell real well
can I go-on from today
hey, is baby okay?

Baby give a little smile
Give a little

Giggle

I’ll leave the wagon there
Cos You and I’s repaired
It’s safe to say
That we’re both okay

And you knew it all along
You’d pick the sunshine
