Punch Lines And Ironies - Chris Rice

Here we are together

I never would have guessed it

Baby, there’s a reason

And, baby, there’s a message

'Cause we’ve all seen the glories

And we’ve all heard love stories

Stranger than this

Stranger than this

Punch lines and ironies

Swirl through the galaxies

Like dust in the sunbeams

That slant through our windows

And heartbeats and molecules

Geniuses and silly fools

We’re all at the mercies

Of punch lines and ironies

Echoes and rumors

Of God’s sense of humor

Leak out of heaven

In the mysteries and legends

And they whisper their glories

Into our love stories

And help us believe

Yeah, help us believe

Punch lines and ironies

Swirl through the galaxies

Like dust in the sunbeams

That slant through our windows

And heartbeats and molecules

Geniuses and silly fools

We’re all at the mercies

Of punch lines and ironies
