Cracker Jacks
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
40 days and 40 nights
We're just trying to make things right
We've discovered is we're all the same
So, pick your piece and move in fast
Then spend your life trying to make it last
Oh, we're all the same
Hold on to what we once had
Cracker Jacks, yeah, I'm in the box
I hope this time I knock off your socks
'Cause I'm the prize your life has to sustain
So here we are in the same ole glass
Sifting sand creating a past
Lots of bubbles and heaps of blame
Here we are in the same ole glass
We're sifting sand creating a past
Lots of bubbles and heaps of blame
Hold on to what we once had
Then try to forgive and forget
Our bad
Don't forget before the dawn
the darkest hour will feel real long
and all our hopes will try to explain
Don't look back cause you'll turn into salt
and half this mess is half my fault
Oh, at least, you're a wonderful man
Don't forget before the dawn
the darkest hour will feel real long
and all our hopes will try to explain
Don't look back cause you'll turn into salt
and half this mess is half my fault
Oh, at least, you're a wonderful man
Oh, at least, you're a wonderful man
