lyrics

It's not my turn to wipe away
The lack of faith we both display
It starts to influence our everyday behaviour
The barkeeper won't be our saviour

Chewing icecubes may be fun
But finish up your drink and come
To my car it's waiting in the dark street outside
I'm still sober and I'll take you for a ride

We don't have the time
To try all the ways in life
But if we go slow we will find
A fairly good one
Maybe not the best
But still better than most of the rest
For practical purpose that is
All we need

You don't have to say a word
In fact, every one might hurt
And shatter this strange mood of glass that we have built up
We could do anything I know we have the will but

We don't have the time
To try all the ways in life
But if we go slow we will find
A fairly good one
Maybe not the best
But still better than most of the rest
For practical purpose that is
All we need

Anneal me, conceal me, heal me, feel me,
Hear me, rear me, appeal to me
Anneal me, conceal me, heal me, feel me,
Hear me, rear me, appeal to me
Anneal me, conceal me, heal me, feel me,
Hear me, rear me, appeal to me
A theory is really and only a good one
If it can be applied to reality

Once again, I saved our week
In the drivethrough, so to speak
For this time, our problems vanished in the dark night
Let's not worry too much, we will be alright

We don't have the time
To try all the ways in life
But if we go slow we will find
A fairly good one
Maybe not the best
But still better than most of the rest
For practical purpose that is
All we need
