[Verse 1] I ought to get up and go to bed Instead I'm just sitting here a-thinking [Verse 2] But tonight the breezes were like water flowing oh so gently through my brain [Verse 3] And if I did things oughta I'd have never been dancing in the rain [Verse 4] I break a wine glass in the kitchen Pondering the questions of my life [Verse 5] Then I notice that my finger's on The sharp edge of a brand new kitchen knife [Chorus] See the flames and smell the smells Pretend the whole thing's going well There are questions that need asking, where are we going and what are we doing? Oh, my life has been fantastic, where are we going and what are we doing? [Verse 6] As the vestiges of winter are swallowed by the fresh green leaves of spring [Verse 7] I want to stop the ticking clock, hold my paradise and sit and sing [Verse 9] Another perfect day here in the desert Just before summer comes crashing in A hummingbird in the window Drinking from a flower in mid-flight [Verse 11] And then I notice that my finger's on the sharp edge of a brand new kitchen knife [Chorus] See the flames and smell the smells Pretend the whole thing's going well There are questions that need asking, where are we going and what are we doing? Though the ride here's been fantastic, where are we going and what are we doing? [Verse 13] Tonight the breezes were so fine They flow like liquid through the wine [Verse 14] I've been to hell and it's a classic, where are we going and what are we doing? Though my life has been fantastic, where are we going and what are we doing? There are questions that need asking, where are we going and what are we doing? [Verse 15] In this handbasket Yeah, the ride here's been fantastic, where are we going and what are we doing?
