lyrics

my life is
full of soft,
full of hard,
and full of gentle
my life is full of gentle,
my life is full of gentle

and when i touch,
i must make it,
i must make it sentimental,
cause this body's only rental,
this body's only rental.

and lonely is
what you make it,
what you make it,
what you make it,
and i am sure to make it,
yes i am sure to make it,

but a smile
ain't a smile
if you fake it,
if you fake it,
so pick your risk and take it,
so pick your risk and take it.

ooh oh oh oh
la da da da
ooh oh oh oh
la da da da

and in september
summer sits like
autumn leaves upon the water,
like leaves upon the water,
like leaves upon the water

but in december
breath is short,
eyes are cold,
and hearts are harder,
but ice is still just water,
but ice is still just water

and on the third
in the rain,
in the rain,
we were swayin',
oh swayin', swayin', swayin',
oh swayin', swayin', swayin',

and there we heard
what the rain,
what the rain
was really sayin':
that they were on their way in,
that they were on their way in.

that they were on their way in,
that they were on their way in,
that they were on their way in,
that they were on their way in,

and the rain is warm is heaven,
the rain is warm in heaven,
and they were on their way in,
and they were on their way
in.
