Pop the cork, a champagne glass
|
Raise to the future, drink to the past
|
Thank the Lord for the friends he cast,
|
In the play he wrote for you.
|
|
And if you love the girl man, light up a torch
|
Blaze a trail to her front porch
|
Kiss her til your lips are scorched
|
Til the rain comes down on you
|
|
Chorus
|
Bless your sweet mistakes,
|
That crumble you down to your knees.
|
That brought you to this place
|
Changing you by degrees...
|
When change was just what you needed...
|
What you needed...
|
|
So if you live your life in a three piece suit,
|
In a cocktail dress, or combat boots
|
You pick your path and you walk your truth
|
And the world will come round to you.
|
|
It's a long strange ride, I can't tell you why
|
But there's a place in your pocket where peace can abide
|
You pull it out, it's a compass, a guide
|
And it will put a little soul on you.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
And in this wild blue world
|
There is a soul weavin' fine feelin' girl
|
But you've got to walk in paradise to find a pearl
|
If you only believe,
|
You'll get what you need... what you needed...
|
|
Conquer your fear and you'll master the game,
|
Life is always and never the same.
|
Use a little faith to light the flame ,
|
And I know you'll connect to you.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Pop the cork, a champagne glass
|
Raise to the future, drink to the past
|
Thank the Lord for the friends he cast,
|
In the play he wrote for you.
