At The Bottom
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.
Takes a fool to know how I feel
Feel like a fish running out a spinning reel
Bite on a hook and you'll know just what I mean
That's what it's like at the bottom
That's what it's like at the bottom
It took time to come and make you see
Life ain't what it appears to be
It's the luck of the draw and the old spinning wheel
Like a message in a bottle
Like a message in a bottle
Watching the sky, with tears in my eyes
I feel lonely
Time's flying by, but I s tart to smile
It's not easy
Gaze at the sky, with tears in my eyes
I feel lonely
Time's flying by, I start to smile
It's not easy
Takes a fall to land you on your knees
Kick that ball if it lands right at your feet
Watch it fly, high above the trees
Till it lands in tomorrow
Till it lands in tomorrow
Till it lands in tomorrow
