lirik lagu jeff schaller and the long way home – for keeps and a single day
if you’ve got a couple minutes
there’s something i’d like to say
for the ones who thought they had it all
then it all came crashing down one day
you never saw it coming
it was always miles away
and in the middle of that fateful night
it hit its stride and broke right through the gate
and you woke up to that dormant fear you can’t explain
well, this life ain’t a safe bet
i guess it never really was
but if history repeats
the odds were always stacked against us
and it’s really kind of funny
how we’re brought up to recall
all those fairy tales of love and death and loss
and the promise that we’d withstand it all
as we continue to fall
when it seems like nothing lasts forever
though nothing’s really changed
and you can’t seem to find your way
i’ll be there to curb the pain
for keeps and a single day
we were chain smoking on a summer sidewalk patio
i know you hate that so much
but i just can’t seem to let it go
and that’s the thing about a habit
oh, they’re really hard to break
and then you push on through and find the truth
there’s only so much truth one man can take
and you find your mind retreats to sober ways or simpler days
it was a cold november evening
by a fire in the yard
where we sang the songs of our heroes
passing around what’s left of an old guitar
and didn’t talk about the future
or what had come to pass
we just held on to that moment
as we tried in vain to make the moment last
and you held in all that anger that you built up in your youth
it’s just what you’d always do
and i admire how your spirit grows through times that test your will
the fear and the rage and the pride distilled
and what’s left is an honest try fulfilled
and the ghosts that always haunt these bars and burned out chevrolets
offer you one last embrace
knowing full well the pain would fade
but hoping that memory stays
for keeps and a single day
