People fall away in all the simple things
Things I could have been to make it easy
And if I could wait, you know I would stay
Right outside your door ‘till I know you’re ready
Ready for the morning
I’m ready for the cold hard truth to take me
So we’ll cross the water again
And all these simple things
So we try to laugh, make it some funny thing
Still I’m looking back, I was living
It all comes crumbling down, makes it easy, now
Lay it on the floor, now I think I’m ready
Ready for the morning
I’m ready for the cold hard truth to take me
Far across the water again
And all these simple things
So we try to laugh, to make it easier now
Beside me on the floor, that was living
And in these fun days, in these final laughs
Try to make it last till I know I’m ready
Ready for the morning
I’m ready for the cold hard truth to take me
So we’ll cross the water again
And all these simple things
