We can fall down
We can go round
And wind up in the middle
Open up a little
It should not be this hard

We can check out
We can leave town
And wind up in the middle
Open up a little
It should not be this hard

I can’t stop this ride we’re on
The days keep grinding on and on
Time will make us right as rain
At least that’s what I hear you say again and again

We can check out
We can leave town
Wind up in the middle
Open up a little
It should not be this hard

Forgive me darling if I fail
Win or lose to no avail (I know you know)
That love is stronger than us two
I believe we’ll make it through (I know we will)

We can fall down
We can go round
And wind up in the middle
Open up a little
It should not be this hard
No it should not be this hard

Rest your head
In my hands
All is well

We can fall down
We can go round
And wind up in the middle
Open up a little
It should not be this hard
No it should not be this hard
It should not be this hard
No it should not be this hard
