Who said a sunny summer day couldn't ease my brain?
Time flies, buzzin' by my window shade
But what about that drunken bum lyin' in the shade?
You lose it all and then you fall in one sick escapade
And oh he hurt a lot of hurt that day
I didn't know but I was told that you could lose your mind
I thought it thru I walked for days but mine it never fell behind
I caught a glimpse it flashed across my eyes and beauty had a name
And she could make me lose my mind if she'd only let me in her game
And oh I get that feelin' comin on
Chorus
You made me turn and turn away
You made me turn my name away
I didn't know but I was told she'd lived a different kind of life
And she was here and she was free and she'd never be nobody's wife
It's strange the pain that you can cause when you only just tried your best
But it's no good to show your good side when you just show the rest
And oh she cried a lot of tears that day
There's a lot of lessons to be learned and none are ours to inflict
She let it lay on her mind and then in time some simple things just clicked
Let him lose his mind, let him drown it in wine, it's his way
Let her turn in the breeze, let her love help to ease, let her play
And only dreams you have can keep you sane
Chorus
And oh oh it hurts my brain
And oh I don't feel the same
