about

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2002

lyrics

it all seemed like water under the bridge
you use the current to your best advantage
yeah you laugh it off with a cough and composure
that's all the elements your exposure

yeah the years wear you down like a river she rolls
sink to the bottom or you swim on your own
but either way you're [she's] smooth as a stone

it's blood from your veins but it's all in code
i had a gun once i had to unload
900 / 99 / 99 / 99 / 99 years from home
unreality has no area code

well destiny she caught me napping
we're all just accidents waiting to happen
yeah if i could kiss burgundy mist off your cherry lips
if i could dance with you slow hands on your hips
