A simple song about anything but what I would normally sing about All smiles and a catchy tune And pretty soon I'll forget I'm here I know these things work out You're weeping, I'm keeping these secrets all to myself No need to start up a fight If that's all right, I'll remain silent I know these things work out You were under water Walking on the ocean floor So far from shore Cold and uninviting were the waves I lost my nerve It's what I deserve I know these things work out
