We know how to love from the very beginning, but we forget through plain old living
Oh, the world keeps on spinning, well we walk through life avoiding different things
Like a baby does to grass, and we sit in our home waiting for the storms to pass
and we'll go outside and find we're alone

We know how to speak very early on, but we forget over time
We stutter with pretty girls and people who drink wine, but we know everything will be fine
Well we walk through life avoiding different things
Like a baby does to grass, but we wait in cars and hang out in bars, but we don't even talk anyone

We know how to laugh from the very beginning, but we just end up straying from the path
We grow old and bitter, we take everything for granted, even our favorite singers,
Well we walk through life holding different things
Like a baby does to grass, and I don't take chances, and I don't fish bass, and everything around just kicks my ass
