I'm Standing In The Light Lyrics

Well, I set fire to an apple tree

And I put it back out like a bad memory.

Yeah, I washed my hands in the flood.

Well, I took a sip of the trouble I've stirred

And I spit it back out like a four letter word.

Yeah I lost my head in the fight.

Well, I sat up high on the walls we built

And I felt just like a fool on stilts.

But I just can't get down.

Olives and a pair of eyes

Are floating in my glass.

And nothing ever seemed so strange,

But this I know will pass.

I've seen as far as the eye can see.

And I blew my mind in the lottery.

Yeah, I lost my chance.

Well, I've been told about the fiery skies.

And I've told my fair share of lies,

But I believe in mine.

Well, I've known folks as smart as dogs

And I've known folks like bumps on logs

And they're all fine by me.

Blue skies and my share of love

Are somewhere in the past.

And nothing worth anything

Is strong enough to last.

Well, I've done my time for the ills I've caused

And I've paid my dues in the bets I've lost

And I've got room enough to cry.

Well, I've seen out as far as my eyes can see

And I've tried my hand at the mystery.

Yeah, I walked in the land of the blind.

Yeah I made my bed in which I lie

And I burned the bridge to the other side.

And I'm standing in the light.

Yeah I'm standing in the light.
