Listening to Dave
While I try to make it through the day
And he's singing, singing his song
About how he's diggin' his ditch
And it makes me think of you
Makes me think of the kids
And it brings me here

Standing in a new place
With a new way of looking
Trying to find a new pair or glasses
So that I can figure out how to see
Once in awhile, a ray of light
It starts to shine through
and I can see, it's going to come
And it's all going to be all right

Though that ray lasts just a few
Brief seconds, I know it's there
And I just have to get there now
Closer and closer, each small step
And each day, it'll last a bit longer
And each day, each week,
We are going to be stronger
The chrysalis will disappear

Listening to Dave
While I try to make it through the day
And he's singing, singing his song
About how he's diggin' his ditch
And it makes me think of you
Makes me think of the kids
And it brings me here
