The Maxes: Music/Lyrics
Fortunately For Me, There's You
(The Maxes)
Josh Max
For Mrs. Max.
Every once in a while
Life becomes a trial
And I sink down, down, down
Into the goo
A hairy beast gone wild
Kicking my feet like a child
But fortunately for me
There's you
Takin' it all so hard
Puttin' up my guard
Bitin' off more
Than I can chew.
When the world breaks balls
My spirit slips and falls
But fortunately for me
There's you
You are all that is good and kind
The rope without which I would sink
Compassion and healing combined
Bringin' me back from the brink
When the sky starts to cloud
And all the voices get loud
And I feel the turn
The turn of the screw
When every horn starts to beep
And every hill looks steep
Fortunately for me
There's you
You are healer and priestess and sage
The fence at the end of a ledge.
Siphoning out all the rage
Pullin' me back from the edge
When the Gods are drunk
And makin' me their punk
And they come down and dunk
Dunk me into the stew
When I'm stuck down a well
And everything's shot to hell
Fortunately for me
There's you
