Blurry
People say
You really might not want to put your heart on parade
These days
Talkin' to me
Like you really might not want to wear your heart on your sleeve
You see
And I'm sure that I could get burned
But if I stand too far away from the flame how can I be warm?
You lose some and you win some
But how can I let you in from behind closed doors?
Those who made me who I am
And those who made me who I'm not
Things that I'll always remember
And what I already forgot
Those who lived like Peter Pan
And those who said to me,
"Young man, you'd better grown up in a hurry."
I remember how it made me feel,
But the details get blurry
Those who tried to hold my heart
But it fell from their grasp
Those who picked it up and brushed it off and put it back
But when I think of places, dates, and names, and all of that
It just gets fuzzy
There's the one who stood below me and told me I was small
There's the one who towered above me and loved me most of all
But when I look back on all of that there's things
I can't recall and that's just funny
(And that's just funny)
(Pre-Chorus)
When I see...
Those who made me who I am
And those who made me who I'm not
Things that I'll always remember
And what I already forgot
Those who lived like Peter Pan
And those who said to me,
"Young man, you'd better grown up in a hurry."
I remember how it made me feel,
But the details get blurry
(Ending)
Those who treated me like a king
When they had no reason
To give me the time of day
And those that you meet for a minute
That a man can't take with him
I hope I'll see you someday
And that you'll be left with something nice to feel
(Details)
That you'll be left with something nice to feel
(Details)
I hope you're left with something nice to feel
When the details get
