Lyrics
He'll find his way
But you know what they say
He's gettin' on
Can't stay past noon
He'll check out soon
He won't be long
He moves slow, he don't care
He says time's slow too
It gets you there
There's what we'll call it
When we won't recall just what we're headed for
The days don't fade
They just come crashin' down
It's the thoughts that fade
They don't make a sound
It's the lonesome, not the quiet
That leads us to deny it
'Til we're down
Hey, before you go
How about you let me know
What's goin' on?
Can't we just see
What's become of me
Before you're gone?
Not lost no more
I'm still not found
Still afraid I found a way
To let you down
Still wonderin' what I'm missin'
Always listenin'
Always hangin' 'round
Small-time laughter
To make that small talk right
It takes so long to say
More than good night
Those last lines are the toughest
Last one out, please shut out the light
Well, it's not okay
No matter what you say
But thanks a lot
I'll take it for today
It'll always be that way
It's what we've got
Can't fix it now
Maybe it was never broken
And if it was, the fixes
Would be nothin' but the tokens
For what we thought for years
The silent fears
They were never ever spoken
But I took all you gave
Or ever wanted to
Ain't I done good?
I needed that from you
And all I've got to say
Is by the way
You done good too
