Last night I saw you again
and I'm not sure what you meant when you said
you'd been looking for the reason
because to me it had been there all along
even when I called you to get no response
I learn to live as I am
with failure as my friend
I won't be let down again
seeing the sights and adventures that I need
I bet you wish you didn't' leave
so you could watch the sun streak
the window panes with me
every time I wake I recall all the rubble
that's been cleared
I'm okay these days
Have you ever lost a bet?
Or laid your money on the slowest mare?
I'll meet you in the jailhouse stable
and if it so happens that you can
that your heart is able
Been running on thin ice from
opposite sides of the glacier
call out to me if you lose your mind in the maze
my frozen hands will find you there
I learn to live as I am
with failure as my friend
I won't be let down again
