"Cracks You Up" lyrics

"Cracks You Up"

Cracks you up the wind does
Breaks all the places you faced
Picks you up and snaps you
Just when you thought you'd resist
Here come the blue suit with a good smile and
A voice so sure
Saying it's hard

Cracks you up this sorrow opens up the things that are bare
Rains in on your home and your love and it makes you bleed
Here comes the evil eye and his handsome face and his
Promise of big skies
Saying its hard, this will be hard
If you're in the big room and the winters kept outside
If you're on the wide road and the houses pass you by
If you're on the big jet and the clouds blackout the skyline
You won't be cracking up this time

Cracks you up the daytime shines on your long night
Shows up all the heartache, all the things you disavow
Here comes the radio singing love will win all over again
It's so hard but you don't see
