I remember pinching pennies for the laundry load Living in a one room shack by the side of the road I know I can be abrasive And I know I can be a jerk But I get the feeling right now The feeling that this just might work 'Cause after all these years well we're finally settling in And after all these tears it seems we're slowly learning to swim Settling in, learning to swim Well we may be cutting corners at the grocery store But things are much better these days than the days before When I know I could be evasive And I know how to be a jerk But I get the feeling right now The feeling that this just might work 'Cause after all these years well we're finally settling in And after all these tears it seems we're slowly learning to swim After all these years well we're finally settling in And after all these tears seems we're slowly learning to swim Settling in, learning to swim
