[Verse 1]
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"
[Chorus]
Then he said, "Here's a riddle for ya
Find the answer
There's a reason for the world
You and I"
[Verse 2]
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, I'm big, but we're smaller than small
In the scheme of things, well, we're nothin' at all
Still, every mother's child sings a lonely song
So play with me, come play with me"
