I think about it all the time

But don't know what to say

When the room is cold and empty

And you look at me that way

Should I sing about the babies

playing pool

Or how 'bout all the times I broke

the rules

One time when I was younger

I woke up in a slump

I was staying at a friend's house

And my mother picked me up

I told her I was crying in the womb

She said she felt it once a week

at noon

And I know that

It's ok

For reality to blow away

So hear me when I say

That life is a crashin' wave

One day I was walking

through the woods

The trees were high and mighty

But I hardly even noticed them

'Cause I heard two lovers fighting

The argument would fluctuate

From scared to nervous quiet

My love is fadin' fast, she said

Oh no, he said

Am I it?

They cried and kissed and walked each other home

And I went to do some fighting of

my own

And I know that

It's ok

For reality to blow away

So hear me when I say

That life is a crashin' wave
