There was a man back in '95
Whose heart ran out of summers
But before he died, I asked him,
Wait, what's the sense in life,
Come over me, come over me,
He said,
Son, why you gotta sing that tune,
Catch a Dylan song,
Or some eclipse of the moon,
Let an angel swing and make you swoon
Then you will see, you will see,
Then he said, here's a riddle for ya
Find the answer
There's a reason for the world,
You and I.
Picked up my kid from school today,
Did you learn anything
Cause in the world today,
You can't live in a castle far away,
Now talk to me, come talk to me
He said,
Dad, now I'm big,
But we're smaller than small
In the scheme of things,
Well, we're nothing at all,
Still every mother's child
Sings a lonely song,
So play with me, come play with me
And hey dad,
Here's a riddle for ya,
Find the answer
There's a reason for the world,
You and I
I said,
Son, for all I've told you,
When you get right down to
The reason for the world,
Who am I?
There are secrets that
We still have left to find,
There have been mysteries
From the beginning of time
There are answers
We're not wise enough to see
He said, you're looking for a clue,
I love you free
The batter swings,
And the summer flies
As I look into my angel's eyes
A song plays on
While the moon is high over me
Something comes over me
I guess we're big,
And I guess we're small
If you think about it, man
You know we got it all
Cause we're all we got
On this bouncing ball
And I love ya free, I love ya freely
Here's a riddle for ya
Find the answer
There's a reason for the world
You and I
