In a couple of hours
The morning is coming
And I'm hittin' the door runnin,
The gasoline is burning
And I couldn't explain why

The message that I have been given
Could have us drown
In the river
Still I gotta deliver it
And I couldn't explain why

I hold a couple of grudges
Could have had a couple of touches
If I hadn't had a couple of crutches
And I couldn't explain why

The world keeps turning
The sun keeps burning
For all to learn what
Heavens only knows
Why do some
Get taken too young
All these answers
That heaven only knows

The wheels are turning
Churching all types of emotion
Strong as the oceans
And I couldn't explain why

This message that I have been given
Could have me drown by the river
Still I gotta deliver it
And I couldn't explain why

I hold a couple of grudges
Could have had a couple of touches
If I hadn't had a couple on crutches
And I couldn't explain why
