Lyrics

The Pond
(Eric Erdman.Tim Jackson)

It gets easier to dance around the questions
Each time I see you on the street
And we've rehearsed the lines enough
That we know which of them...are admissible

But our words are weakened by expressions
to the point they truly have no strength
And Since I know we won't discuss
Anything that matters

I won't ask if you if you ever think about

The pond before the pebble's cast
Doves before they scatter
The smooth sheet of perfect glass
Before it felt the shatter
The marble before sculptor
The page before the pen
Or what I would ask you now if I could go back and ask you then

If I believed what is said about fate
I wouldn't bother looking back
These conversations wouldn’t be so brittle
And maybe we could say how we really feel

But there's a wisdom that comes along with age
And lessons from opportunities passed
Whether or not you solve the riddle
The results from your choices are real

They'll leave ya thinkin bout..

The pond before the pebble's cast
Doves before they scatter
Smooth sheet of perfect glass
Before it felt the shatter
The marble before sculptor
The page before the pen
Or what I would ask you now if I could go back and ask you then

As we said our generic Hope to see you soons
You flipped your hair the way you do
It went unnoticed by everyone else on that avenue
But it told me everything I needed to know
For a moment, you were back there too

The pond before the pebble's cast
Doves before they scatter
Smooth sheet of perfect glass
Before it felt the shatter
The marble before sculptor
The page before the pen
What I would ask you now if I could go back and ask you then


The pond before the pebble's cast
Doves before they scatter
Smooth sheet of perfect glass
Before it felt the shatter
The marble before sculptor
The page before the pen
What I would ask you now if I could go back and ask you then
