I will never be the best I can except for fleeting moments
I have spilled my cup and I cleaned the floor
And I know I'm better for it

If your body's sore it's cause you've done something
If the sun is in your eyes then you're alive
If your heart is worn it's cause you loved someone
And when you die you lived a life

I will never see this town from space or piss on the Berlin Wall
But I drank vermouth on the Ganges shore
And I saw the light of Bogota

If your body's sore it's cause you've done something
If the sun is in your eyes then you're alive
If your heart is worn it's cause you loved someone
And when you die you lived a life

I'm surprised I got this far - like a monarch in El Paso
It's a rusty bus on a mountain side
And we're passing with our eyes closed

If your body's sore it's cause you've done something
If the sun is in your eyes then you're alive
If your heart is worn it's cause you loved someone
And when you die you lived a life
