Everything's Easy

It's cloudy today but no rain came
 I sat and waited outside
 The trees in the wind were all shaking
 But the storms pass us by
 So I turned on the news for an hour
 And Matt Lauer was shaking his head
 He said that the oceans are rising
 So put your children to bed
 Still on most days, I hear myself say
 Everything's easy
 But you never know, wherever I go
 Is a way
 A rocking chair, a cinnamon pear
 Look up in the air, You're a millionaire
 And if I could be anywhere I could be
 I'd be anywhere
 Because my life is only mine to hold
 The nights are cold, and it's snowing
 In Vermont, but all that I want is here
 In the clear light of the streetlight
 Still on most days, I hear myself say
 Everything's easy
 But you never know, wherever I go
 Is a way
 I guess I was dreaming
 The oceans were steaming
 And when I started to wake up
 I dreamed Derek Jeter
 At bat with St. Peter
 He hit a home run, and Jesus won
 The pennant and cup
