Lyrics

The lyrics:
It’s hours before your next big exam and you have been up all night You eyes feel like fried eggs in a frying pan Your scrambled brain is . .. toast
 
You’re pacing and sweating, 'cause so much is resting on if you can just get this right A few short years pass everything from that class Is lost in the wind of tonight
 
Blown like the dust Out of our cusp So we’re measure by what we don’t see Patience is a marvelous thing Oh patience
 
It’s three in the morning, he’s crying again From just 15 minutes ago You can’t make him stop and you just sure can’t kill him So get up for one more go
 
And just when you’re thinking this will never end He drives off to college alone The years flew so fast you can barely grasp Your baby is leaving home
 
Chorus
 
Sometimes it helps to picture yourself in a worst-case scenario You just count all your blessings and all of that crap Well, maybe it doesn’t help at all
 
I must confess my only hope rests in the one love that still shouts my name Throughout all my complaining, that mercy keeps raining and Driving my guilt down the drain
 
Till it’s
Chorus
