《The Obvious Child》歌词

[00:00:26] I'm accustomed to a smooth ride

[00:00:29] Or maybe i'm a dog who's lost its bite

[00:00:31] I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more

[00:00:34] I don't expect to sleep through the night

[00:00:37] Some people say a lie's a lie's a lie

[00:00:39] But i say why

[00:00:41] Why deny the obvious child

[00:00:43] Why deny the obvious child

[00:00:47] And in remembering a road sign

[00:00:49] I am remembering a girl when i was young

[00:00:55] And we said these songs are true

[00:00:57] These days are ours

[00:00:58] These tears are free And hey

[00:01:01] The cross is in the ballpark

[00:01:04] The cross is in the ballpark

[00:01:09] We had a lot of fun

[00:01:10] We had a lot of money

[00:01:14] We had a little son and we thought we'd call him sonny

[00:01:19] Sonny gets married and moves away

[00:01:22] Sonny has a baby and bills to pay

[00:01:24] Sonny gets sunnier

[00:01:26] Day by day by day by day

[00:01:39] I've been waking up at sunrise

[00:01:41] I've been following the light across my room

[00:01:44] I watch the night receive the room of my day

[00:01:49] Some people say the sky is just the sky

[00:01:52] But i say

[00:01:53] Why deny the obvious child

[00:01:56] Why deny the obvious child

[00:02:10] Sonny sits by his window and thinks to himself

[00:02:15] How it's strange that some rooms are like cages

[00:02:20] Sonny's yearbook from high school

[00:02:23] Is down from the shelf

[00:02:25] And he idly thumbs through the pages

[00:02:30] Some have died

[00:02:32] Some have fled from themselves

[00:02:36] Or struggled from here to get there

[00:02:40] Sonny wanders beyond his interior walls

[00:02:45] Runs his hand through his thinning brown hair

[00:02:50] Well i'm accustomed to a smoother ride

[00:02:53] Maybe i'm a dog that's lost his bite

[00:02:55] I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more

[00:02:58] I don't expect to sleep the night

[00:03:00] Some people say a lie is just a lie

[00:03:02] But i say the cross is in the ballpark

[00:03:06] Why deny the obvious child
