If  I wrote down a hundred things,
That  I thought that I could do,
By  the time that I was 67.
Would  there be another list,
Of  99 things that I missed,
Just  because I had a fear of failing.
Would  I have walked between two towers,
Just  like the man on wire,
Even  though he had a chance of falling.
Would  I have opened up my soul,
And  let inside that deep dark hole,
Another  human being capable of calling  me back home?
And  we can watch movies,
And  we can watch movies,
Where  all ends  well.
And  we can do coffee,
Yes  we can do coffee,
Where  all starts hell.

I  wrote down a hundred things,
That  I thought that I could do,
By  the age of 19 years  old.
There's  another list,
Of  just one thing that I missed,
All  because I had a fear of failing.
One  thing that I left,
Highly  unadjusted,
Without  a line dividing up the letters.
If  I ignored those little words,
I  could never become hurt,
I  could move on and do so much better.
And  we can watch movies,
And  we can watch movies,
Where  all ends  well.
And  we can do coffee,
Yes  we can do coffee,
Where  all starts hell.
