Tommy's haunted by the pressure to become
|
The first family member to wear a cap and gown
|
Time it ticks and the sweat it drips down
|
He's longing for that tassel dangling from his golden crown
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Lay it down, let it go right now
|
Misery loves company with those who cannot set it down
|
Throw your cares on Him, He'll show you how
|
Now's not the time to be missing out
|
|
She dreams of white picket fences has thoughts of marrying him
|
She believes is her existence, somebody should tell him
|
And now you'll find her on her knees
|
As Jesus takes her lonely heart and holds it tenderly
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Life's melodies can be accompanied by doubt
|
They start happy then comes the minor key
|
That brings us down
|
But in times of endless tragedy
|
He's been known to compose His best symphonies.
