Текст песни Reasonably Fine

I lost my shoes I lost my wife

I lost my keys I lost my kite

And though IA?A€A™m young at heart IA?A€A™m so much older



Subway eyes and banked up skies

And violent towns and frozen pies

And all them football crowds who lost are cold now



But youA?A€A™re the same as you and IA?A€A™m the same as me

And hopefully we can find ways to let us be reasonably fine

Reasonably fine, at least to beat my drums in time



Suddenly IA?A€A™ve realised

That I wonA?A€A™t be here when I die

And life upon this plain is somehow fleeting



Time and all itA?A€A™s precious wine

Is somehow primed to make us whine

And fret even then when we should be sleeping



But youA?A€A™re the same as you and IA?A€A™m the same as me

And hopefully we can find ways to let us be reasonably fine,

Reasonably fine, at least to play my pretty chimes




Empty cries and hollow toots

And all the signs that have no use

And fingers point accusingly are sinning



Humourless hypocrisy

And all the crimes we didnA?A€A™t see

The sigh that knows the devil might be winning



But youA?A€A™re the same as you and IA?A€A™m the same as me

And hopefully we can find ways to let us be reasonably fine,

Reasonably fine, at least to let my music shine



And maybe itA?A€A™s the greatest test

A manA?A€A™s surrounded by his death

But reaches out and tastes the sweetest honey



ThatA?A€A™s how you make me feel

I love you more than death is real

ItA?A€A™s sad but in the end it might be funny



That youA?A€A™re the same as you and IA?A€A™m the same as me

And hopefully we can find ways to let us be reasonably fine,

Reasonably fine, at least to leave an open mind
