Just so you know I’m not afraid to die
It’s the distant spaces I’d leave behind
That shakes me right down to the core
That leaves me there just wanting more
Just so you know I never wondered why
Or how you gave to me the bluest sky
That leaves me sad and leaves me cold
You took my guns so I’ll never know
So by the time you told me why
It got too late to hold my head up high
You told me all the things that you tried to say
To break my heart and rue the day
And now I start to figure out
What you gave to me beyond a shadow of doubt
You tell me what you want and what to say
A bird that sings to sail away
Just so you know a bit I’m not done yet
I’ve paid my bills but not paid my debt
For when I’ve tried to light my way
To sing your song to see if I’m ok
Just so you know you’ll see me way up high
I tried to live I never wanted to die
I never thought of it that way
To break your heart on the bluest day
So by the glass you raise up high
It’s getting late and time to say goodnight
I figure all the kids have gone away
And saved it all up for a rainy day
So now you wish you’d gone to bed
And locked up all that you got stuck in your head
You just make it up and save the day
You fill my heart and sail away
So by the glass you raise up high
It’s getting late and time to say goodnight
I figure all the kids have gone away
And saved it all up for a rainy day
So now you wish you’d gone to bed
And locked up all that you got stuck in your head
You just make it up and save the day
You fill my heart and sail away
