Lyrics The Riddle

There was a man back in ninety five
Whose heart ran out of summers but before he died
I asked him wait what's the sense in life come over me, come over me
He said son why you gotta sing that tune
Catch a Dylan song or some eclipse of the moon
Let an angel swing and make you swoon then you will see, you will see
Then he said here's a riddle for you find the answer
There's a reason for the world you and I
Picked up my kid from school today
Did you learn anything 'cos in the world today
You can't live in a castle far away
Now talk to me come talk to me
He said dad I'm big but we're smaller than small
In the scheme of things well we're nothing at all
Still every mother's child sings a lonely song
So play with me come play with me
And hey dad here's a riddle for you find the answer
There's a reason for the world you and I
I said son for all I've told you when you get right down to the reason for the world who am I
There are secrets that we still have left to find
There have been mysteries from the beginning of time
There are answers we're not wise enough to see
He said you're looking for a clue
I love you free
The batter swings and the summer flies as I look into my angel's eyes
A song plays on while the moon is high
Over me something comes over me
I guess we're big and
I guess we're small
If you think about it man you know we got it all
'Cos we're all we got on this bouncing ball
And I love you free
I love you freely
Here's a riddle for you find the answer
There's a reason for the world you and I
