What Does Making It Mean Anyway

Lyrics by Catalina Jimenez G.

Verse 1
Look at you with that old guitar
Playing songs with the same four friends
And look at me with a borrowed pen
With a long list of dreams to sell

Chorus 1
What does making it mean anyway?
Is it right here where we are?
If it means to hope for another day
Won’t you stay here for a while?

Verse 2
Look at them smiling their way out
Of the troubles they looked for then
And look at us laughing through a song
That we don’t know how will end

Chorus 2
What does making it mean anyway?
Is it right here where we are?
If it means to run out of words to say
Won’t you stay here for a while?

Bridge
What does making it mean anyway?
I’ve heard money, fame, or tears
They never talk about a feeling
Or who is standing next to them
They never talk about forgiving
Or how you want what you’ve been given
All careless chatter of joy so fleeting

Chorus 3
What does making it mean anyway?
Is it right here where we are?
So if it means to hope for another day
If it means to run out of words to say
Won’t you stay here for a while?
