Lyrics

If all my luck ran out tomorrow

I'd have to say that I have had my share

Enough to balance out the sorrow

Enough to say that I'm a little scared

'Cause this is not what I expected

I did not expect to feel this good

I always kept my heart protected

I crossed my fingers and I knocked on wood

Chorus:

All the rest is just like gravy on the table

And I'll pour and pass as long as I am able

And I know it takes some time to understand

The rules of behavior here in gravyland

Here in gravyland

If all my luck ran out tomorrow

And I fell back to where I began

With a spirit poor and a need to borrow

I'll know that who I was is who I am

Chorus

If all my luck ran out tomorrow

And all of love is just a memory

You only miss me like an arrow

Or I am ashes in the darkening sea

All the rest was just like gravy on the table

And I've poured and passed as long as I was able

And I know it took some time to understand

The rules of behavior here is gravyland

Here in gravyland

If all my luck ran out tomorrow

Repeat and fade
