John Wesley Harding Same Piece Of Air Lyrics

Same Piece Of Air Lyrics

Yesterday we were the best of friends

Today we can't get back again

Time has crept in crevices

And patterns down the wall    

We could paint over the papered cracks 

Tomorrow they would all crack back

Who are we to try to stop the fall?

There's no reason to worry

There's no reason to care   

There's no reason to wonder 

It's not going anywhere

And we used to love to share the same piece of air



We behave like real human beings

Who eat, then wash the dishes clean    

But I have held you in my arms

And tried to read your mind

And maybe baby if we both relax

The axe that grinds behind our backs

Will wear itself to nothing over time   

There's no reason to worry 

There's no reason to care

There's no reason to wonder

We're not going anywhere

And we used to love to share the same piece of air

    

We used to breathe in and out together 

Every one second lasted forever



There's no reason to worry

There's no reason to care

There's no reason to wonder    

We're not going anywhere 

And we used to love to share the same piece of air
