All the Soft Places to Fall
Seeking Refuge in Soft Places: A Ballad of Longing and Redemption
Lyrics
Most of my lfe I've been runnin' around
Expressing a history of constant movement and activity in life.
Playin' and havin' a ball
Enjoying life and having a good time.
And maybe I've been on a party too long
Suggesting that the partying lifestyle may have been prolonged.
These mem'ries are fond to recall
Reflecting on fond memories associated with the past.
You see we've got this thing
Having specific preferences regarding women, smoking, and alcohol.
About women smokin' and good alcohol
Continuation of the preference for certain lifestyle choices.
Now I'm lookin' for a homelife
Expressing a desire for a stable home life.
And clean smellin' sheets
Desiring cleanliness and comfort in the living environment.
And all the soft places to fall
Seeking comfort and support in relationships.
The women we've known have been many
Reflecting on a history of encounters with many women.
But they don't understand us at all
Highlighting a lack of understanding from the women encountered.
Though we've spent many a long hours
Spending time in anticipation of past loves reaching out.
Hopin' some old love would call
Expressing a hope for someone to still be interested in them.
Surely somebody somewhere still wants us
Questioning if there is still someone who wants them.
Or don't nobody wants us at all
Raising the possibility of being unwanted by anyone.
We're lookin' for a homelife
Reiterating the desire for a stable home life.
And clean smellin' sheets
Reaffirming the preference for cleanliness and comfort.
And all the soft places to fall
Emphasizing the search for supportive and soft places in life.
Most of our lives we've been outlaws
Describing a history of living outside the law.
Slept with our backs to the wall
Sleeping with caution and vigilance.
I'm a rambler I'm a seeker
Identifying as a wanderer and searcher.
And we're gettin' weaker
Acknowledging a growing vulnerability to life's challenges.
A whole lot more likely to fall
Expressing an increased likelihood of facing difficulties.
We're tired of the rocks and brambles
Expressing weariness with obstacles and challenges.
Those barbed wire fences and all
Specifically mentioning physical barriers like barbed wire fences.
We're lookin' for a homelife
Continuing the desire for a stable and comforting home life.
And clean smellin' sheets
Reiterating the importance of cleanliness and comfort.
And all the soft places to fall
Highlighting the search for soft and supportive places in life.
Most of our lives we've been outlaws
Repeating the theme of living outside societal norms.
Slept with our backs to the wall
Maintaining a cautious and defensive lifestyle.
I'm a rambler I'm a seeker
Reiterating the identity as a wanderer and seeker.
And we're gettin' weaker
Acknowledging an increasing vulnerability to life's challenges.
A whole lot more likely to fall
Emphasizing a higher probability of facing hardships.
We're tired of the rocks and brambles
Expressing exhaustion with difficulties and obstacles.
Those barbed wire fences and all
Specifically mentioning physical barriers like barbed wire fences.
We're lookin' for a homelife
Reiterating the desire for a stable and comforting home life.
And clean smellin' sheets
Reaffirming the importance of cleanliness and comfort.
And all the soft places to fall
Emphasizing the ongoing search for soft and supportive places in life.
