This Too Shall Pass Lyrics - Bruce Hornsby

I gotta get somethin' done today 

Give a accomplishment a shot 

Might not have a full talent to use 

But I'm gonna paint with the colors I got 

But then your hopes and not deals you embrace 

And then there's what's staring you in the face 

Sorrowful times are here but they won't last 

'Cause this too shall pass 

This too shall pass 

Feelin' like a lazy tub of lard 

[Incomprehensible] gave me his business card 

Think I'll take the personality test 

Document my fineness thus far 

Then your hopes and not deals you embrace 

Then there's what's staring you in the face 

First place men will one day roll in last 

'Cause this too shall pass 

And this too shall pass 

Better get it on so I'm off started right 

Comin' soon they're gonna fix it in time 

I just want to get what's mine 

Not a function, gonna just, gonna [Incomprehensible] 

And this too shall pass 

What you gotta do to find a cure 

For the things that make you feel so impure 

Just now I don't know for sure 

Sometimes misery has a strange way 

Then your hopes and not deals you embrace 

Then there's what staring you in the face 

Sorrowful times are here but they won't last 

'Cause this too shall pass 

And then your hopes and not deals you embrace 

And then there's what staring you in the face 

Sorrowful times are here but they won't last 

'Cause this too shall pass 

This too shall pass
