And you know how it goes
Kiss your feet, tell me lies
Heaven knows you are a flame
Fire burns through these
Winter in the storm
Summer in the country
And you know how it goes
Who wins the race, who's falling over in the street
Heaven knows you are a flame
Burning through, like your eyes
Too well you hold the key
And I know damn well, you know me
And I know . . .
Happy in your way, what about me?
I know . . . Long and fall behind
I'm setting you free, for you
And I heard a song today
And they say
It's all about being alive, now, you try
I might fall out of reach, I might move to the beach
I might fall out of reach, I might learn how to teach
And I might stare at my hands, I might cancel my plans
And I might stay in my bed, it might go to my head
There will come a time, I'll play it for you my dear
Your fine nursury rhyme, we' ll sing it again, I know
And I heard a song today and they say
Take a turn I will let you be
I might fall out of reach, I might move to small town where nobody knows me
And I might quit the band, I might move to Spain and change my name
And they'll ask, " Where is ol Pete , " well Pete has fallen asleep while on his feet
And I do, I know, I know, but I dunno.
