Lyrics

We had our mind made
Just had to find the right wave
To ride beyond the border

Tossed up and let drop
Just had to hit the right spot
To find a little order

And every turn
Lurked a lesson like we’d always hoped to learn
And for all the common sense we almost earned
It’s incredible we never crashed and burned, burned

Each fence was miles high
Yet low enough for us to climb
Like nothing to get over
Until our destinies divide
Like a pair of diamond eyes
Drifting from each other

And every move
We were always halfway closer to the truth
And for all the common sense we could have used
It’s incredible we never caught the blues, blues

Those days were painted gold
And every stretch of every road
Outsparkled every other

And every turn
Lurked a lesson like we’d always hoped to learn
And for all the common sense we almost earned
It’s incredible we never crashed and burned
And for all the common sense we could have used
We were always halfway closer to the truth
It’s incredible we never caught the blues, blues
