Nothing Could Go Wrong

Nothing Could Go Wrong

Out here where the sky meets the road

The years keep rolling

Like the wheels that take you home

Drawn toward a bright horizon line

It ain’t hard to look ahead

When there’s nothing in your past to leave behind

Courage comes in many different ways

It can be the tears that form a pool

Of nothing left to say

But in the silence you must remain strong

Surrounded by the walls of thought

And wanting to belong

[chorus] But these are times, these are times

When it seems the world is pushing us along

These are times, these are times

To get lost inside an old, familiar song

Watch the trees sway gently on the lawn

At times it seems like nothing could go wrong

[bridge] And I suppose that we could disappear a while

Free from superstition and denial

We’ll throw our rope around the moon

Between the drops of rain

And hope the hard times never come again

Out here where the sky meets the road

You can hear the whispers

Of the ones who’ve gone before

Spoken with a wisdom you can’t buy

Something you will need

When you start running out of exit signs

[repeat chorus]
