kids just fallin' in love
Holding hands but can't find light
Only knew it just felt right
Time goes by and soon they see
Life was hard but still I'll be
Troubles come and troubles go
But they'll get through together
And through the passing of the years
These two have weathered many tears
Kids are growing up too fast
Payoffs, letdowns, and the price of gas
But somewhere out along the way,
neither could recall the day
Realized that they'd grown apart,
their hurried lives devoured them
And after spending time apart
Hoping space could heal their hearts
He phoned her just to keep in touch
See how she was, did she miss him much?
But life goes on was all she said
His fleeting hopes at last had fled
But weren't she muttered times before
Now meant, I don't need you anymore
Got a family, friends, and a telephone
Simple life's got its flaws,
the future's looking brighter
would turn you back on for yourself
But the madness doesn't melt away
Careful what you wish for,
And even in our final hour,
For those who know their higher power,
Comforted till our last breath,
And things will soon be brighter,
