Not in This Life
We probably all get to thinking from time to time about things that we cannot change, and then we start thinking about how we'd change them anyway. If only the "this" was the "that," we could definitely change things. This song is just a way to touch on that a little bit, speaking about how we can't really change fixed things in this life.

If the sky weren't blue and its storms weren't gray
If you were comin' to go instead of leavin' to stay
I could get a solid yes, instead of a maybe
And if up was down and if left was right
Then I could sleep all day to cure sleepless nights
I would drift off to sleep and I'd dream just like a baby
Like a baby, baby
(Chorus)
But not in this life
'Cause no black ain't white
And no wrongs make it right
At least that's what they tell me
And they tell me
The day and the night
The passing of the time
They're things that I can't change
Not in this life
If a lie was the truth and the truth set me free
Then any word you'd speak would break these chains off me
And I wouldn't be so suspicious to keep askin' why
And if I didn't have the need to play all six strings
Three chords and the truth might not include E
The melody would be too low to lift me high
And high and high
(Chorus)
