Lyrics

Caught a little sun Feel a little lazy Had a little fun Drank a little wine Made a little love Got a lot of nothing on my mind It's a good night To lay around here killing time I made peace with the dark I'm over the nightmares I've got a strong heart And clean desires I'm turning out alright It's been a sweet life so far It's a good night To kill a little time in your arms I get a frail hollow longing in my dreams still A far off sense of loss when I first wake (when I first wake) But, I'm turning out alright Ain't it a sweet life these days? It's a good night To kill a little time on the fire escape Hey Ya, Hey, Ya I nearly let the lust destroy me If not for you I'd have surely drowned But I've seen hunger most will never comprehend Plant friends and lovers One by one in the stony ground There's a gathering storm I hear a little thunder I feel a little wind I smell a little rain But I can deal with the angels Cause it ain't me they're here to claim It's a good night For blowing them off Til some other day I get a frail hollow longing in my dreams still A far off sense of loss when I first wake (when I first wake) Turning out alright Ain't it a sweet life these days? If you think you can stand Holding my hand on the fire escape I'm a good man Who's done a couple of bad things Along with way
