about

The song that started it all, finally recorded for the 20th anniversary of playing music together.

lyrics

Just ask yourself
One simple thing
What is it
That really matters to me
And if you find
You can’t make up your mind
Then it’s time

Nobody knows you like I do
And there ain’t yet been a heart more true
When this old world’s crashing down on you
I’ll be there to help you sing the blues

You can crash
At my place
When you don’t want the world
To see your face
And in your softest voice
You can sing
Or just close your eyes
And rest those tired wings

We can go
For a long, long ride
You can keep your gun
At your side
And when you aim
I won’t run and hide
From all the pain
You keep locked up inside

Just ask yourself
One simple thing
What is it
That you see in me
And if you find
You can’t make up your mind
Well then it’s time

Nobody knows me like you do
And there ain’t yet been a heart more true
When this old world’s crashing down on me and you
Will you be there to help me sing the blues
I said , will you be there to help me sing the blues
