These are moments I'd forget
If it weren't for the time I had, I'd worse I've got to admit
I'd walk a lifetime in your shoes if it means I'll understand it
If I haven't stopped by now I don't see why I would quit
I've gotten real good at brushing things off
That don't stop me from believing I can't go wrong
Will you hear me without me there?
Will you like what you hear?
I can do so much with the things I sing, but I can't change not being there
Aren't they lovely?
The things I won't see, I'll save 'em for later
They'll break me like glass, they'll bite me in the ass
And I'll be blind again someday
Like trying to get in without a key
Nothing to unlock that I haven't already seen
See, I could be a nice guy and let you walk all over me
But to be honest it's such a stroke to let you ignore me
Said I've gotten real good at brushing things off
That don't stop me from believing I can't go wrong
Will you hear me without me there?
Will you like what you hear?
I can do so much with the things I sing, but I can't change not being there
Aren't they lovely?
The things I won't see, we'll save 'em for later
They'll break me like glass and they'll bite me in the ass
But I'll be blind again someday
