Beyond Me Lyrics

The sky is falling
It’s coming down and blowing
All around like last summer’s leaves
The high road is calling
Like it has many a day
But for a first I am listening
Well I’m parked here on this city bench
As I set these pipe dreams free, oh
So how this road became my own
I don’t get it, it’s beyond me
I was a young man
With my thumb out in the rain
Threw myself at the mercy of the world.
I wasn’t the biggest fan of the hourly wage

I’d rather find myself in the eyes of a girl
But my worldly bent brought discontent
But it was all I would believe, oh
So why this grace did come my way
I must admit, it’s beyond me
To see your life come undone
You brought on what you feared
But I’m sure I’ll only come up shortchanged
If I interfered
Oh
Here in the heartland
Where trouble’s far away
And it’s just my maker and me
I will lay my coat down
Give an offering
And resign myself to agree
But in this blessed day I cannot stay
No there’s many more to be, oh
So how this road became my own
I don’t get it, it’s beyond me
So how this road became my own
I don’t get it, it’s beyond me
Oh
