(Verse)
|
They were flying high on their own sweet time
|
Climbing up on a harder in dime
|
Digging deep from their own gold mine
|
Getting drunk on the homemade wine
|
|
(Verse)
|
She was perfect, he was too
|
Kids came quickly, they stopped at too
|
Life was easy and life was good
|
They knew the limits like they should
|
|
(Chorus)
|
But they couldn¡¯t hear the music
|
They couldn¡¯t hear the sound
|
They couldn¡¯t hear the music
|
They couldn¡¯t turn around
|
|
(Verse)
|
Got a job and the pay went up
|
They started to swim in a bigger cup
|
She lost some weight and her chest size grew
|
The children thrived and the money flew
|
|
(Verse)
|
Second day in a warmer clime
|
The bow is strong and the arrow climb
|
The sky got clearer and the ground got dim
|
He loved her, she loved him
|
|
(Chorus x2)
|
(But) They couldn¡¯t hear the music
|
They couldn¡¯t hear the sound
|
They couldn¡¯t hear the music
|
They couldn¡¯t turn around
|
|
(Verse)
|
He ran off with the boss¡¯s kid
|
He bought a place to keep her hid
|
Soon enough a baby came
|
It felt good just to start again
|
|
(Verse)
|
She got with the fitness guy
|
She got the house, she learned to fly
|
They lived so long, they lived so well
|
Life went on, wrong never fell
|
|
(Chorus)
|
But they couldn¡¯t hear the music
|
They couldn¡¯t hear the sound
|
They couldn¡¯t hear the music
|
They couldn¡¯t turn around
|
