[Verse 1]
The man in the hallway is cleaning up grief
While travelers chase after time like a thief
With oversized bags they wait for relief in the dawn
Ah, the best of intentions all get up and leave before long
[Verse 2]
And the highway is frozen with cold working stiffs
Who sit in their well-heated cars tightly lipped
And wait for the light to change red to green then move on
Ah, the best of intentions all get up and leave before long
[Bridge]
Sooner or later the good and the bad
All end up being just times that we had
Don't take it too hard
Thinking you figured it wrong
[Verse 3]
The sun went away and it ain't coming back
It would be a shame if you forgot how to laugh
It would be a shame turning your back on a song
Ah, the best of intentions all get up and leave before long
[Bridge]
I told you I loved you and tried not to cry
I told you the angels all know how to fly
Cross my heart
This ain't goodbye, just so long
[Verse 4]
Red sky at night is a sailor's delight
So I put on my skates and I'm crossing the ice
Holding my breath, I think once or twice about God
Ah, the best of intentions all get up and leave before long
[Verse 5]
The man in the hallway is cleaning up grief
And the faithful will always fall back on belief
I wish there was something I could believe to belong
Whoa, the best of intentions all get up and leave before long
Yeah, the best of intentions all get up and leave before long
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm, yeah
