Lyrics
When I stumbled through the door
There was nothing there to catch me
I just hit the floor
And watched my life go past me
At the rate it’s going now
I’ll be up in half an hour
And maybe then I’ll find my way into the shower
And then I’ll contemplate
The reason I am working
Every single day
The answer must be lurking
Somewhere in the steam
Where I forget about it
Is this just a dream somehow I doubt it
Lift me up again, one last time before you let me down
Be a sport and throw me out a line before you let me drown
There has got to be another way to make you smile
And if I am late
It shouldn’t be surprising
Baby ain’t it great
To do all this fantasizing
And isn’t it a shame
The way clarity can strike you
It sneaks up on you quietly and then it bites you
