Gary Louris - To Die A Happy Man lyrics

It's not enough, but then again, it's more than what I had And if I die today, you know I'd die a happy man Torturous though it seems Pouring forth bittersweet Wrestling with the good and evil In ourselves within our struggle Want to laugh, or say a prayer I never had a cross to bare, So beautiful So beautiful Is there a lesson here for me to learn, for me to follow I crawl on shards of gla**, To reach the field where we can wallow Strip me clean, I should rejoice So cruel a game we have no choice Pulled together like two atoms Hurling through space and time The days for you are nights for me Do we deserve this misery So beautiful I need a picture of my cherished love between my fingers I grasp for fragments & I gasp for air in drowning chambers I feel your blood within my blood I'd be there with you if I could Like two birds in their cages like actors upon different stages I know that life is never fair How could we dream this nightmare So beautiful So beautiful So beautiful So beautiful For years I floated slow Just drifting by in murky waters But now the fog has lifted Cycles fly in brilliant colors Restless sleep, words seem weak My lips they quiver when I speak Cars and buses carry fools, Who do not know what we're going through I'm holding on for dear life Because I've come to realize It's beautiful So beautiful So beautiful So beautiful And now you're home and in the background I can hear the voices Feel you fadin' dear and you will be just distraught Tortuous though it seems pouring forth the bittersweet Wrestling with the good and evil in our selves within our struggle Want to laugh, but do I dare, I never had a cross to bear So beautiful So beautiful So beautiful So beautiful
