歌词
There was a lightness in her smile
A trace of failure in her eyes
The real talk would come at night
Stories of a self-affirming fight
It was once upon a time
That she decided to survive
When I asked if it was strength or spite she said
She said the music's fine
Sweet talk again
It's alright
I remember what she said
The confidence of the family is getting lost on me
And though she found it hard to take, she said
Advice on society I provide for free
Trouble came up later on
When he tries to overcome
Ten thousand tons of angry feelings
Thrown at us by everyone
Who couldn't fathom that we'd won
A quiet trip to float upon
The lazy river of a life that brought
Desire for a thicker coat in the rain
It's alright
I remember what he said
The principles of reality are getting lost on me
And though she found it hard to take, she said
Advice on society I provide for free
Well it took a lethal turn
When she declared our love had burned
And with the charcoals she would write my name
On the mirror that stood beside he bed
So I could remember my face
And carry the weight
But I never got that lesson right
I stared, then I escaped
It's alright
I remember what she said
The virtues of sobriety are getting lost on me
And though she found it hard to take, she said
I did take her advice, it stood the test of time
Now I know that specialists concur
All that happened was cause we were
Young and underused
