Gabriel Kelley Lyrics
"Only Thing To Do"

Twilight never chase its morning
Hard rain never waits to fall
Thunder never heeds a warning
Dead ends never take you far

Any time, any place, for winter
Well I was always headed south
You were swinging for the fence (?)
Holding up both sides of the house

Oh that was the only thing to do
Oh that was the only thing to do
Yeah it's true

Old strings always end up broken
The soldiers always take their leave
Windows always get left open
The beggar's gonna make his plea

Each time light would start its shining
A trouble there's staring at my shoes
You were reaching for the sketcher
Trying to dream away my blues

Oh that was the only thing to do
Oh that was the only thing to do
Yeah it's true

Sometimes there can be exceptions
We both know the well has long run dry
You should go find yourself another
The young at heart need to feel alive

Oh that was the only thing to do
Oh that was the only thing to do
Yeah it's true
It was the only thing to do
Lord, it was the only thing
(That was the only thing)
