lyrics

Everything is obvious
You know what it means
Don’t try to read between the lines
Cause everything is as it seems

I go walking out my door
Always looking around for more
Some brighter light or better time
But she says that I’m doing fine

She asks, “Why all this discontent?
We all dream to some extent
But you go and overanalyze
Just sit back and be surprised”

She says everything is obvious
You know what it means
Don’t try to read between the lines
Cause everything is as it seems

There’s a church she goes to pray
But I tend to stay away
If there’s a god, he must be proud
But he can’t see much from on that cloud

The details, they get lost on him
But me, I tend to focus in
Of all the powers that he’s got
Simplicity is the one I want

He’d tell me everything is obvious
You know what it means
Don’t try to read between the lines
Cause everything is as it seems

I hope that I’m the one for her
I know that she believes it
She says that she’s got my back
She says, “Honey, just relax”

“There’s nothing here that you can’t see
All it is, is you and me”
And I’ll listen to her from here on out
Cause that’s what love is all about

Now I know everything is obvious
You know what it means
Don’t try to read between the lines
Cause everything is as it seems
