[Verse]
There was a ma
n back in '9
Whose heart ran out of summers
But before he
died I asked h
im
Wait what's the sense in life
Come over me C
ome over me
He said
Son why you got to sing that tune
Catch a Dylan song or some eclipse of the moon
Let an angel s
wing and make
you swoon
Then you will
see You will s
ee
[Chorus]
Then he said
Here's a riddl
e for you
Find the Answe
r
There's a reas
on for the wor
ld
You and I
(
Picked up my k
id from school
today
Did you learn anything cause in the world today
You can't live
#
in a castle f
ar away
Now talk to me
come talk to
me
He said
Dad I'm big bu
t we're smalle
r than small
In the scheme of things well we're nothing at all
Still every mo
ther's child s
ings a lonely
song
So play with m
e come play wi
th me
[Chorus]
And Hey Dad
Here's a riddl
e for you
Find the Answe
r
There's a reas
on for the wor
ld
You and I
I said
Son for all I'
ve told you
When you get r
#
ight down to t
he
Reason for the
world
Who am I
There are secr
ets that we st
ill have left
to find
There have bee
n mysteries fr
om the beginni
ng of time
There are answ
ers we're not
wise enough to
see
He said You lo
oking for a cl
ue I Love You
free
The batter swi
ngs and the su
mmer flies
As I look into my angel's eyes
A song plays o
n while the mo
on is hiding o
ver me
Something come
s over me
I guess we're
big and I gues
s we're small
If you think about it man you know we got it all
Cause we're al

And I love you
free
I love you fre

[Chorus]
Here's a riddl

Find the Answe
