lyrics

I’m walking in front you’re walking behind
Haven’t you heard of a thing called time
You're taking yours while mine is running out
You’re trying not to smile 'cause I’m trying not to shout
I’m cleaning spilled milk and I want to cry
You filled my whole crossword with the letter Y
You didn’t get dressed like I asked you to
Maybe today I’ll go to work in my pajamas too . . .

So help me I’m trying to see the beauty
Trying to be a little less moody
But I need you to help develop this negative
Into a picture of a place I’d love to live

Sucking on a cup with a lid on top
A row of middle-aged babies at a traffic stop
Sitting on a bench with a dog tied on
Looking down instead of looking where the little one’s gone
Work late, get up early, don’t forget to brush
See me walking hear me talking in a rush, rush, rush
I see you staring, see you caring about the drawings you do
When was the last time I cared about something like you do?

So help me I’m trying to see the beauty
Trying to be a little less moody
But I need you to help develop this negative
Into a picture of a place I’d love to live

So help me I’m trying to see the beauty
Trying to be a little less moody
But I need you to help develop this negative
The best picture of a place is
One where I can see all of our faces
That’s a picture of a place I’d love to live . . .
