I donĄŻt drink as much as i used to
lately it just ainĄŻt my style
and the hard times donĄŻt hurt like they used to
they pass quicker like when iĄŻs a child
Somehow iĄŻve learned to listen
for a sound like the sun goinĄŻ down
in the magic the morning is bringing
it keeps my feet on the ground
DonĄŻt the midsummer days sit so heavy
but donĄŻt they flow like a breeze through your mind
and nothinĄŻ occurs in a hurry
to make up for someoneĄŻs lost time
Somehow iĄŻve learned to listen
for a sound like the sun goinĄŻ down
in the magic the morning is bringing
it keeps my feet on the ground
Somehow iĄŻve learned to listen
for a sound like the breeze dyinĄŻ down
in the magic the morning is bringing
it keeps my feet on the ground
