Swept Away

Sometimes it’ll all roll out And sometimes you have to make it happen I’ve seen it fall into my lap And I’ve seen it walk away So there you are Feeling like a fallen star Can’t read the headlines now, they’re faded Tied to your phone Rock under paper, like a sitting stone You’ve never seemed so sad and jaded Swept away You wanted to get swept away No luck so far Who knew it could be so hard Waiting for the lights to change You want to know If it’s green, if it’s gonna go You’re looking for someone to blame Sometimes it’ll all roll out And sometimes you have to make it happen I’ve seen it fall into my lap And I’ve seen it walk away Swept away You wanted to get swept away ‘cause it’s so dry, dry here at home Things could change, oh baby only things could change But you won’t try anymore Sometimes it’ll all roll out And sometimes you have to make it happen I’ve seen it fall into my lap And I’ve seen it walk away One day you’ll learn The path is long, the road is worn You have to try, and try, and try and try and try and try again Sometimes it’ll all roll out Sometimes you have to make it happen I’ve seen it fall into my lap And I’ve seen it walk away Sometimes it’ll all roll out And sometimes it even makes you happy I’ve seen it fall into my lap Don’t let it walk away
