It's Going to Be So Nice When This is Over

I feel my head spin And it makes my heart break But I’ll get through it Like I always do Some days Are better than others And I just keep my mind on you I can’t wait til this is over I can’t wait til this is done And I can see you again It’s gonna be alright But it won’t be easy There’s a glimmer of low light That’s all I need it’s gonna be so nice when this is over It’s gonna be so nice when it’s all done And I can see you again Anytime I want These are weird times Very strange But the airy springtime Won’t miss a beat It doesn't miss a thing And it’s gonna be so nice when this is over It’s gonna be so nice when it’s all done And I can see you again Anytime I want

You trace across my mind Going back and forth a million times And then through it Cloudbursts Skyline Morning and nighttime disappear Over and over they whisper You wait here I’ll be back for you someday You know I can’t deny what is plain to see You catch my eye and the heart agrees Even though it cracks just like a mirror And I can’t tell if I should laugh or cry So I let it rain and let it dry In the end, I’m smiling through the tears I had a shirt for half my life It said, "Hello my name is Michael Stipe I’m with stupid Jet Lag Survey: 4 out of 5 Americans can’t make intelligent choices Thank you!" I wore it ‘til it fell apart You know I can’t deny What is plain to see You catch my eye and my heart agrees Even though it cracks just like a mirror And I can’t tell if I should laugh or cry So I let it rain and let it dry And in the end, I’m smiling through the tears

There’s writing on the wall, but I can’t read it Won’t you tell me what it said Living isn’t easy so you might as well dream it Don’t tell me what it meant I wouldn’t if I could, but I can’t, so what? So what do you want me to do? I don’t want to feel like I lost your love I’d fall apart if it wasn’t for you So what’s it all about? Baby, I forget We want the pleasure but we don’t want the debt? This could be as easy as it’s ever going to get I don’t know I never have There’s something to be said for keeping your mouth shut Oh, leave it to the dead It is what it is until it isn’t what it was Don’t tell me how it ends I wouldn’t, if I could, but I can’t, so what? So what do you want me to say? I don’t want to feel like I lost it all / I fall apart when you look the other away So what’s it all about? Baby, I forget We want the treasure but don’t want the threat? This could be as easy as it’s ever going to get I don’t know I never have So what’s it all about? Baby, I forget Living isn’t easy Don’t tell me how it ends There’s writing on the wall Just tell me what it says

HEY, WHAT’RE YOU SAYING? WHAT’RE YOU TALKING ABOUT? EVERYTHING IS SHADOWED IN DOUBT BUT IT ALL COMES BACK TO LOVE IN THE END DON’T BE DENIED BUT DON’T GET CARRIED AWAY YOU’LL BE ALRIGHT AND AT THE END OF THE DAY IF YOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU IS ISN’T WORTH WORRRYING ABOUT OH, BABY I KNOW THE LOWS ARE SO LOW SOMETIMES IT’S HARD TO CHEER UP BUT IN A BEAUTIFUL TWIST THE SWEETEST THING IS THE HIGHS ARE AS HIGH AS THE SUN SO LET IT IN AND LET IT WANDER AROUND THEN PULL THE PIN AND LET IT ALL SPILL OUT ALL OVER THE PLACE AND DON’T FEEL BAD YOU DID OH, BABY I KNOW THE LOWS ARE SO LOW SOMETIMES IT’S HARD TO CHEER UP BUT IN A BEAUTIFUL TWIST THE SWEETEST THING IS THE HIGHS ARE AS HIGH AS THE SUN

Slow dive in dreams puts my head at ease Thinking back through days in my life simpler than these And it’s such a peaceful empty sadness I’d do it all again It’s a fine line It’s a fine line It’s so fine You’ve got to learn when to let the sun break in when you need it Nostalgia floods my heart like a morning light And it carries me away in reverie every night To a lonely beach I go to change my mind And melt into the sky It’s a fine line It’s a fine line It’s so fine You got to know when to let your lows go high when you need to Sometimes I get caught in memories And it feels like real life disappears on me again It’s a fine line It’s a fine line It’s so fine Yeah, you got to know when to let your lows go high when you need to
