What's All the Fuss About?

I flew all the way today

Back from LA

You tie your hair in a red band bow

When you greet me by the gate

Sip and stir from your coffee cup

And break bread crumbs on the floor

I fight my head 'cause I wanna drink

But I want you so much more

Oh what's the fuss all about?

I knew all the way today

Back to our place

You didn't care if I said too much

I could see that by your face

You sleep and stir when I pick you up

And drop your neck scarf on the floor

I fight my mind cause I wanna think

That I'll be here evermore

Oh what's the fuss all about?

Oh what's the fuss all about?

The bell rings aloud in the school yard sun

Young boys all they wanna do is run

The trees and the leaves and they blow in the breeze

And the blossoms are pale pink, the young girls sneeze

The swings in the park and the ghosts in the dark

The truths and the dare and the secrets we share

The things that we learn and the things that we earn

Embarrassing days and mistakes that we make

Jet streams in the sky

You're gone in the blink of an eye

Heavenly hugs and the shoulders you shrug

The bully, the boss and the priest and his cross

The letters we write and the wrongs you can't right

The space that we need in the loneliest weeks

Blows in the wind

Repenting our sins

The games that we play and the changes we make

The love and the light and the smiles you ignite

Skin on skin

The life that we chase, it feels like a race

To get to the place with the pride and the grace

It's hard to replace the touch of your face

When you're so far away

Are you lost? Are you found?

On this merry go round?

What's all the fuss about?
