saw an old couple walking down the street holding hands
some folks live their lives in the promised lands
it was cold as hell but the sun was shining
as I walked by the frozen sea almost cryin’
those rare things ain’t so hard to find
if you just remember every once in awhile
if you just remember to open your eyes
beyond words there’s a world, where thoughts cannot go
awaits a place called the great unknown
where your money’s no good
and your troubles are gone
you can go there now
but the road is long
the rare things ain’t so hard to find
if you know where to look when you close your eyes
if you know that your only fight is with who you are inside
sitting round here with nothing else to do
but play my guitar and dream of you
I close my eyes to the sweetest chords
sing some words I ain’t sang before
I ‘ve travelled around
i’ve lost some friends
with my highest of highs came my deadest of ends
but I don’t mind, no I don’t mind
I feel alive
I feel alright
guess these rare things ain’t so hard to find
when you remember to just be kind to yourself
when you remember to just live your life for yourself
