Sideways Walking Lyrics

There's really no reason why
You and me hitched a ride
And I am walking sideways
You and me in between
We never admit defeat
And I am trying against all odds

You and me have seen defeat
We never skipped a beat
And I am walking sideways
Even on the eastern side
I look them right in the eyes
And I am trying against all odds

That your son will come back home
A little worse than before

When the oceans
Reach into their pockets
And pull out something tragic
That's when I'll be honest
That I don't see the advantage
Of letting go of something
You held on too long to
That's the part of growing
That I want no part of

There's really no reason why
You and me hitched a ride
And I am walking sideways
You and me in between
We never admit defeat
And I am trying against all odds

That your son will come back home
A little worse than before

When the oceans
Reach into their pockets
And pull out something tragic
That's when I'll be honest
That I don't see the advantage
Of letting go of something
You held on too long to
That's the part of growing
That I want no part of
