morning comes easy
and the days they move fast
and tomorrow's not takin'
no for an answer
and she's just a girl
with her feet planted firmly
with concrete lead toes
and a rattling chain
the birds i'm crazy
and the wind says i'm crazy
and my head says i'm crazy
for standing so static
and i want to follow
but my laces are tied all wrong
my mind moves in motion slow
my tongue's of no use
and jenny stands on her toes at the window
and stares at the cars driving by on their way
yeah jenny swears that she'll follow them someday
but someday's a long way away from today
she tiptoes 'round corners and
eyes the reflection of
questions from yesterday
for some reasons why
and she turns her gaze upwards
to the heavens above her
and is surprised when the answers
don't fall from the sky
and jenny walks on a wire in a daydream
and brushes the clouds and is kissed by the rain
and jenny swears it'll all be real someday
but someday's a long way away from today
and when the time came to move on
they burned down their houses
and sift through the ashes
and saved all the nails
and jenny turns her grey eyes to the ocean
and whispers goodbye to her gulls and her waves
and jenny i swear that we'll be back someday
but someday's a long way away from today
and jenny stands all alone in her ocean
the waves crash around and they swallow her whole
she knows that there is no place for tomorrow
she takes a deep breath and lets it all go
