The data's in, the science says
We grow older and lonelier everyday
They took a world of broken hearts
And put them right there on a nice neat chart
Don't ya let their news
Get you high up on those blues
And ain't all bad if it's true
Because maybe I could walk a bit with you
On this long march to solitude
Can I walk it with you?
You make the darkness seem less black & blue
And after long nights of unquiet too
Can I wake up with you?
You know that's all I'm really trying to do
Open up those windows
Let your sunbeams pour on though
Drinking out of the garbage bin
Because our cup runneth over and over again
I got a rental a river view
And I'd love to share a cup or two
The funniest joke is life
Just make sure you tell it right
We can let that punchline hang
And we'll be laughing right on past the bank
On this long march to solitude
Can I walk it with you?
You make the darkness seem less black & blue
And after long nights of unquiet too
Can I wake up with you?
You know that's all I'm really trying to do
Open up those windows
Let your sunbeams pour on through
You're burning off the fog
You're burning off the dew
I've got some pancakes frying
Got some coffee brewing too
