Tomorrow is gonna make you cry
|
It's gonna make you kneel
|
Before it breaks you from inside
|
Still pressing on
|
Arm over arm
|
Still trying to get both feet back on to the ground
|
They are harvesting these fields in autumn
|
We're different now than when we started
|
|
I am ready to wake up
|
There in the exodus
|
On the beautiful side of somewhere, baby
|
|
There on the pavement, underneath the yellow moon
|
I think of you and just how easily we bruise
|
A folded address in my pocket, I have stopped
|
Trying to believe for you that the bottom didn't drop
|
I am on the platform, covered with dust
|
I pray they take the both of us, and
|
|
I am ready to wake up
|
There in the exodus
|
On the beautiful side of somewhere, baby
|
|
And I am ready to come down
|
And see us both somehow
|
On the beautiful side of somewhere, someday
|
|
Somewhere, someday
|
|
I am lighting matches for the rescue
|
Some are candles, some are fuses
|
Acting on my best behavior
|
Switching over every breaker
|
|
As we're plowing through these laws of nature
|
Disregarding every acre
|
I'm lying in my Sunday best
|
Assuming this was not a test, and
|
|
I am ready to wake up
|
There in the exodus
|
On the beautiful side of somewhere, baby
|
|
And I am ready to come down
|
And see us both somehow
|
On the beautiful side of somewhere, someday
|
|
Somewhere, someday
|
|
Beautiful side of somewhere.
