Paradox (Jamie’s Song) Lyrics by Phil Cooper

Thoughts & Observations

2018

Here we go again
Feeling the rhythm
But unable to dance
Although the beat is our hearts
They’re beating out of time
With the rest of our lives
So why are we at our best when we’re at our worst?
The hurt we feel brings chorus and verse
To you and me my friend, we are the paradox that never ends
I guess you could say it’s a blessing
And I guess you could call it a curse
To put all our troubles so neatly into words
Because they follow us around
For a long time after the fact
For the rest of our lives
So why are we at our best when we’re at our worst?
The hurt we feel brings chorus and verse
To you and me my friend, we are the paradox that never ends
We’re writing to remember, we’re writing to forget
Yesterday’s pain is tomorrow’s debt
The monkey on our back gets lighter as we sing
But it’s always there in the melodies we bring
Here we go again
Feeling the rhythm
But unable to dance
Although the beat is our hearts
They’re beating out of time
With the rest of our lives
So why are we at our best when we’re at our worst?
The hurt we feel brings chorus and verse
To you and me my friend
To you and me my friend
To you and me my friend, we are the paradox that never ends
