I awoke in the pouring rain
With the meadowlark calling out my name
In the morning light
Time will take a familiar face
A camera flash
A cold embrace in the dead of night
Feed the fire, feed the flame
Put it out and do it all again
Ah
It's alright, don't be afraid
The children's choir and the holy ghost singin'

Hey now
Hey now
Well it only take a second to fall
But it only takes a minute to start over again
Hey now
Hey now
Hey now
Well it only takes a second to fall
But it only takes a minute to start over again now

I awoke to the northern lights
A sea of red filling up the sky like a neon sign
And not to point the obvious it's a wreck
It's a mess
But I guess that's life
You disappeared from my point of view
Changed your hair and you changed your shoes ah
Life goes by while you're shaking hands
And your old man had a heart attack singin'

Hey now
Hey now
Well it only take a second to fall
But it only takes a minute to start over again
Hey now
Hey now
Well it only takes a second to fall
But it only takes a minute to start over again now
Now
Now

Hey now
Hey now
Well it only take a second to fall
But it only takes a minute to start over again
Hey now
Hey now
Hey now
Hey now
