lyrics

LEAF IN THE SUN

i've seen the nights go longer
than i ever care to know
i bore that cross again
i felt the sandy salty
water on my skin
is that what makes us men?

and where's the good
in all the lines we cross today
they always find our way
and when the last great leader
stumbles from his soapbox seat
is that where you want to be

holding on
like a leaf in the sun
the light is good enough
to find my own
tracks again
but still i know
they ain't real

i'll take my leaving now
it's time to ride the waves
i'll see you all again
on some other sunny day
until then, don't forget
to take what you can get
that's all i have to say

-4/8/02
