Effort is bliss
Times are changing
I’ll forgive you if you forgive me too
I’m standing alone in a crowd full of people
Who look nothing like you
And I look for you
Above the landscape
Many photographs are taken
People want to show their kids
Road trips to Manhattan
Watching the skylights
Things we saw, things we did
I recognize you from somewhere
Somewhere precious and green
You’re both dignified and kind
We hurry to meet your friends
We pass by loud mountains and cherry trees
My need to capture it all, you don’t mind
Feels like we’re spinning all the time
Feels like you’ll catch me from behind
Feels like why I met you, I know why
I sigh in defeat
At the end of the day
Close the curtain and mark my exit
You’re frustrated but won’t show it
I wish you’d just let it out
I know you’re desperate
But disease spreads like wildfire
And we’re warm on the couch
Hand me a Margarita with lime
Feels like we’re spinning all the time
Feels like you’ll catch me from behind
Feels like why I met you, I know why
You’re both dignified and kind
