Inevitable

The weather man said today
it's a slight chance of rain
I had to laugh to myself
because on any given day
it's been a hurricane
knocking down my power lines
shaking my foundation
breaking all my window panes
I'll build again
and I'll send you a letter
self addressed so you know
exactly where to go
please don't reply
just arrive with the future
in your eyes I adore
show me what they're for.
This is inevitable
when will you believe
this is inevitable
time may turn the leaves
it's so inevitable that we
will eventually see
another spring again
on that you can depend
Somebody thinks they want
a lifetime in your sun
fancy restaurant cocaine nights
thinking you're the one
to give him every touch
but I know so much better
it's a matter of a moment
till you break into a run
You're gonna try with all your might
to forget
but like a ghost I appear
to whisper in your ear
I'll see you smile
as you dial all the numbers
memorized by the way
for this very day.
This is inevitable
when will you believe
this is inevitable
time may turn the leaves
but it's inevitable that we
will eventually see
another spring again
on that you can depend
This is inevitable
as long as we still breathe
this is inevitable
time may move the sea
but it's inevitable that we
will eventually see
these waters rise again
on that you can depend
You can try to deny it baby
you can try. you can try
You can try to deny it baby
you can try your best
This is inevitable
when will you believe
this is inevitable
time may turn the leaves
it's so inevitable that we
will eventually see
another spring again
on that you can depend
This is inevitable
as long as we still breathe
this is inevitable
time may move the sea
but it's inevitable that we
will eventually see
these waters rise again
on that you can depend
