lyrics

Simple Situation

Abandoned by the past times
Delivered all the punchlines
A lifetime's what they've made of it
Confidence will suite you
Believe in me you'll get through
The critics haven't got an ounce on you

Knockin' at my door
The best of me is here alone
Time is passing slow
I can't remember how I lost this control

How hard is it to make this
A simple situation
The smallest things just bring me down
Here at this piano
The chords are droppin' down low
Bring in the band no thoughts in tow

Knockin' at my door
The best of me is here alone
Time is passing slow
I can't remember how I lost this control

Just close your eyes and turn your mind off darling
You're sweet on the vine, but you're still outta line
Forget it now and take a deep breath honey
It'll all blow over
Turn off the light

Knockin' at my door
The best of me is here alone
Time is passing slow
I can't remember how I lost
Remember how I lost
Remember how I lost
Remember how I lost this control

Job hunt's on Tuesday
Sobriety's Wednesday
Waiting here for you
