Ben Taylor - Not so Sad Lyrics

Lucky you, lucky stones
Lucky low setting sun
Easy smoldering, two-ended torch
Time that beat life like the skin of god’s drum
While we smoked cigarettes on the porch

Safe in the shadows and true in the light,
Well-removed from the lost and the found
I harbor my strength to remember that night
So to honor the up with the down

It’s not so sad
It’s not so sad
It’s not so sad
It’s not so sad
Going forward to find your way back

And I’m leavin’ on a plane
Here I go again
Never be the same
Hard as you hit me
And it’s sad to say goodbye
Tryin’ to figure why
Even when you cry
You look so pretty
You look so pretty

If I hadn’t been reckless, I’d never have learned
Taken leave of my balance or slit
But I started to tremble, to freeze and to burn
Ever you are my challenge and gift.
Just as sure as the joy can make peace with the pain
So that ease can be proud of the work
Heaven and earth are as one when it rains
So we search for our clouds in the dirt

It’s not so sad
It’s not so sad
It’s not so sad
It’s not so sad
Going forward to find your way back
