you fell down of course

and then you got up of course

and started over

forgot my name of course

then you started to remember



pretty tough to thnk about

the beginning of december

pretty tough to think about

pretty tough to think about

yeah yeah

pretty tough to think about



you're looking down again

and then you look me over

we're laying down again

on a blanket in the clover



the same boy youve always known

well i guess i havent grown

the same boy youve always known

the same boy youve always known



think of what the past did

it could have lasted

so put it in your basket

i hope you know a strong man

who can lend you a hand

lowering my casket



i thought this is just today

and soon youd be returning

the coldest blue ocean water cannot stop

my heart and mind from burning



everyone who's in the know says

thats exactly how it goes

and if theres anything good about me

im the only one who knows
