|
Pop the cork, a champagne glass |
|
Raise to the future, drink to the past |
|
Thank the Lord for the friends he cast, |
|
In the play he wrote for you. |
|
And if you love the girl man, light up a torch |
|
Blaze a trail to her front porch |
|
Kiss her til your lips are scorched |
|
Til the rain comes down on you |
|
Chorus |
|
Bless your sweet mistakes, |
|
That crumble you down to your knees. |
|
That brought you to this place |
|
Changing you by degrees... |
|
When change was just what you needed... |
|
What you needed... |
|
So if you live your life in a three piece suit, |
|
In a cocktail dress, or combat boots |
|
You pick your path and you walk your truth |
|
And the world will come round to you. |
|
It's a long strange ride, I can't tell you why |
|
But there's a place in your pocket where peace can abide |
|
You pull it out, it's a compass, a guide |
|
And it will put a little soul on you. |
|
Chorus |
|
And in this wild blue world |
|
There is a soul weavin' fine feelin' girl |
|
But you've got to walk in paradise to find a pearl |
|
If you only believe, |
|
You'll get what you need... what you needed... |
|
Conquer your fear and you'll master the game, |
|
Life is always and never the same. |
|
Use a little faith to light the flame , |
|
And I know you'll connect to you. |
|
Chorus |
|
Pop the cork, a champagne glass |
|
Raise to the future, drink to the past |
|
Thank the Lord for the friends he cast, |
|
In the play he wrote for you |
