fifty years have ridden off into the sunset
|

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of
the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way
I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while
I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

I wasn't looking for a lifetime with you
I never thought it would hurt just to hear
"I do" and "I do" and I do a number on myself
And all that I thought to be
And you'll be the one who just left me undone by my own hesitation
And for the million hours that we were
Well, I'll smile and remember it all
Then I'll turn and go
While your story's completed, mine is a long way from done
I'm on a champagne high
Where will I be when I stop wondering why
On a champagne high
Spring turned to summer, but the winter turned mean
The distance seemed right at the time, it was best
To leave and to leave behind what I once thought was fine
And so real to me
And while I'm still gone on the quest for my song I'm at your celebration
And for the million hours that we were
Well, I'll smile and remember it all
Then I'll turn and go
While your story's completed, mine is a long way from done
I'm on a champagne high
Where will I be when I stop wondering why
On a champagne high
I'd toast to the future but that'd be a lie
On a champagne high
Your wagon's been hitched to a star
Well, now he'll be your thing that's new
What little I have you can borrow
'cause I'm old, and I'm blue ...
And for the million hours that we were
Well, I'll smile and remember it all
Then I'll turn and go
I'm on a champagne high
Where will I be when I stop wondering why
On a champagne high
I'd toast to the future but that'd be a lie
On a champagne high
So high you left me undone
I'm so high you left me undone
-David
