lyrics

I got something that makes the world seem so clear and bright
So I can make a decision and always get it right
Yeah no one else has seen them, for they’re not yet for the masses
Life is such an easy job wearing my hindsight glasses.

Standing at an intersection wondering which way
Or rambling out at night –“should I go or should I stay?”
I just put them on to see what happened as time passes
The outcome’s always good for me wearing my hindsight glasses.

You can build your time machines or pray you could go back
Just to do things differently, to take a better track
But I just hang them on my ears, perch them proudly on my nose
And looking through the lens, the perfect situation flows.

Maybe I would lend them out if I had a spare
Do you think they’d send the kids to war if our leaders wore a pair?
Perhaps they’re more useful than a lover’s heart
Relationships that ended bad wouldn’t need to start at all.

The other day I threw them out – you’d think I must be mad
But some mistakes are beautiful and others don’t turn out so bad
Just not the same one too many times and you might fall on your feet
And I can still see beyond where the waves and the sky meet
Yeah I can still see beyond where the dirt and the sky meet
I can still see beyond where the mud and the sky meet.
