lyrics

Woke up just this morning
Got a big surprise
It came without a warning
Or even sweet goodbye
And though I should be fishing
The future bright and true
Instead I sit here wishing
I was sitting there with you
Oh yes I do

I know I ought to listen
To what the people say
Instead I'm just resisting
The truth in every way
And though I should be flying
Into a bright new day
Makes no sense even trying
When I'm looking some other way
Go!

I hear all kinds of voices
Around me every day
They make all my good choices
Screw the rest I say
And though I ought to smile
At how it came to be
Won't happen for a while
Cause you’re not sitting here with me

I know I ought to listen
To what the people say
Instead I keep resisting
The truth in every way
And though I should be fishing
The future bright and true
Instead I sit here wishing
I was sitting there with you
