Normal Life

I stood under ohio's skies I could see the open fields for miles I thought "what the hell am I doing back here again?" But now I'm trying to reassemble the things I kept and The pictures fade but I hope to resurrect The things that kept me sane back then In the backyard playing on the swingset Dark green shoes off you can get your feet wet Mom and dad sat quiet in the sunroom Sundown, big moon, big sky. Now I just want to live a normal life Get a fast car and a pretty wife We could have children of our own Settle down here until they're grown We could buy a house out on the beach And just die there, out of reach Do you want to live Do you want to live Do you want to live a normal life with me Live A normal life with me For years I cursed these dead end streets No where to go, no one to meet We only talked about the crazy woman down the road But everything makes much more sense now Someday I'll have my own house I'll make enough to make it easier to pay the phone bill In the backyard playing on the swingset Dark green shoes off you can get your feet wet My wife and I will sit quiet in the sunroom Sundown, big moon, big sky. I just want to live a normal life Get a fast car and a pretty wife We could have children of our own Settle down here until they're grown We could buy a house out on the beach And just die there, out of reach Do you want to live Do you want to live Do you want to live a normal life I'll watch the kids until you get home 4:58 and you're on the phone Coming back from work on Friday Wide-awake in the american dream I'll make the bed, you feed the cat Could it really be as simple as that? (yeah) Do you want to live Do you want to live Do you want to live a normal life with me Do you want to live a normal life with me Now I just want to live a normal life Get a fast car and a pretty wife We could have children of our own Settle down here until they're grown I just want to live a normal life Get a fast car and a pretty wife We could have children of our own Settle down here until they're grown We could buy a house out on the beach And just die there, out of reach Do you want to live Do you want to live Do you want to live a normal life Do you want to live Do you want to live Do you want to live a normal life Do you want to live Do you want to live a normal life with me?
