Always

Someday we'll miss misfortune Miss the unreturned phone calls And the rats on the subway Even they'll say 'congratulations' When we make it through this mess Start really living There's something so inviting Thinking on better things, better things Whatever can keep you smiling Working through this whole 'life' thing What's feeling like 'Always' is just a moment One wave on the ocean passing through Some sunny afternoon I won't quit practicing my smile 'Till the edges are smoothly filed Be ready when I've got a reason Maybe I'll write a new religion We'll be holy rollers now We'll see the world in color Shows how long I've been down I'm coming up, only coming cuz I believe Better things rarely if ever come easy And we're here all too briefly To be calling it 'Always,' it's just a moment One wave on the ocean passing through Some sunny afternoon Always is just a moment Of breathless devotion, lasting proof Time is precious here with you Time is precious here with you Always is just a moment One wave on the ocean passing through Some sunny afternoon Always is just a moment of breathless devotion Lasting proof time is precious here with you Time is precious here with you Time is precious here with you Time is precious here with you Time is precious here with you
