Intro: x2 verse 1: Did you ever have one of these days? This is a day like any other day You are free to wake up and shave Soapy hands fumbling on porcelain Hot good coffee and a good good book Bicycle! Bicycle! Interlude: -- x2 Chorus 1: Breathing easier now Tear the roof off your day No one's coming over It ain't written so don't try to read it verse 2: Smell the hot rain on the street Could be love Could be alcohol Cup my hands around your face A little frame A lot of pain I can tell the tears from the rain One tastes sweet the other plain Interlude: x2 (Repeat Chorus 1) Bridge: And who am I to think I could hang such a precious life on a clever line? You're in all the books I read A hundred pages out of reach And so I pull myself Crawl to my feet hit the street It'll take some time to learn the lesson of the fall and begin another climb Interlude: x2 Chorus 2: Breathing easier now Tear the roof off your day No one's coming over It ain't written so don't try (hold) to read it
