Would it comfort you
If was asleep
Would it make it better, at all?
And I m thinking
And drinking, too much
Then it all comes out and I fall back into your arms

And you can t avoid it now
And you fight it, but you re feeling not all right
And you can t explain to the girls
How you find it so deceiving
That the instruments are playing your life s ballad
And it s sounding so relaxing, well alright

My arms are
Around you
Holding onto your belly
You re breathing
Easy
And we won t come to till the sun comes through

And you can t avoid it now
And you fight it, but you re feeling not all right
And you can t explain to the girls
How you find it so deceiving
That the instruments are playing your life s ballad
And it s sounding so relaxing, well alright
