Hold Me
02:45
|
|
||
Count my breath and hold my time
I can't wait til I'm on your side
Leaving isn't easy, girl
I've got half a mind to stay
Deck of cards in my pocket
How long will I deal til I blow it?
Deck of cards in my pocket
I'll keep dealing til I blow it
Soup is cooking on the stove
Do I have time to have a smoke?
Soup is cooking on the stove
Do I have time to have a smoke?
Who put the butter in the fridge?
Who put the butter in the fridge?
Who put the butter in the fridge?
You know I don't like it cold

I fell in love with a man who was older
Made you so mad the angel on my shoulder
I took the Chinatown bus in September
I skipped my classes I knew it was over
And all of your friends said that you'd better not go
Something is wrong with this girl from Ohio
They just don't understand all the things we know
A spinning, weird world - selling weed for my grandpa
Don't tell me that you know
Don't tell me that you know
Baby please don't go
New Years Eve, Chesterhill, we were spinning
In the observatory that Conrad was building
Calling the stars new names that have meaning
Carl Sagan's blazer was bending and beaming
Bobby stood up and he sang karaoke
He made me an ax that I still carry with me
I lied to Michelle, I told her I was twenty
Think it made her feel better about sharing her whisky
Don't tell me that you're gone
Don't tell me that you're gone
The wind is still singing our song
We packed for a hike, but drove to South Carolina
Looked everywhere for a beach we could sleep on
Nothing is free so we paid for Best Western
Bored with the things that the cops have their paws on

I've got a daydream right beside me
I've got a daydream right beside me
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
There's a moonbeam pulling on me
There's a moonbeam pulling on me
Are you the one who's pulling my strings?
And I've got another great idea
There are more than one thousand
There are more than one thousand
Ways to spend a couple grand
And I've got another great idea
If you told me that I'd meet you
If you told me that I'd meet you
In every lifetime, I'd believe you
And I've got another great idea
Put your hands up where I can see em

Saucer Eyes
02:57
|
|

A different basement, a different tape deck
Saucer Eyes, hold me like a teacup
Pouring honey on an open wound
Sitting in this motel room
Another city, a different truckstop
A different city, the same old IHOP
This cigarette feels like a prison
Sitting in this motel room
Sick and sweet Appalachian Dream
I loved you and it scared me
Same lover, a different handshake
Every diner makes the same milkshake
I can feel my heart split in two
Sitting on this train with you
Sick and sweet Appalachian Dream
I loved you and it scared me
Sweet and brief, Highway Queen
Two words for the same thing

Pink Room
04:21
|
|
||
Nails painted pink just like the Madonna Inn
And she was trying, she was trying to say something
Something under her breath and we were looking for something
Something in each other
But not that
Eyes wild and free just like the river
The one that I drove over right at the border
She was whispering in my ear, tapping on my shoulder
Waiting on an answer
But not that
Your hands were shaking just like a flower
Everything was blooming in the early summer
We were hoping for a change
A change in the weather
But not that

Sarah
03:26
|
|

She wore a yellow scarf tied around her neck
And I'm sure it had all of the reason to be there
And she woke with the kind of light you'd never care to see
And I waiting for so long that it overtook me
I swore that I would never end up like the ones
Who moved to California looking for the sun
But I broke in the kind of way I never thought I would
And I'm painting every day just like you said I should
I fell in love with Sarah every single day
Her curls, her money, and her particular ways
And I sat and watched her as she squared it all away
And I hope that I can walk around like her someday

Talking to myself feels a lot like talking to you
I don't wanna read the news
I wanna walk to your room
The things I never do
The things I never do
Don't you understand?
The tide waits for no man
And time doesn't care for plans
I said I'm with the band
You're such a ladies man
You're such a ladies man
And now I miss you
A friend and someone to sing to
I can pack my bags
You don't have to hear me sing again
Am I the kind of girl you marry?
Walking back and forth, it felt like a dream
that I didn't quite believe but you were convincing me
And as I looked above
I saw trees we couldn't tell the size of
Trees we couldnt tell the size of
Now I don't miss you
You were so hard to talk to
Letters I won't send
I still read them now and again
Am I the kind of girl you marry?
Am I something temporary?
Am I better inside of your memory?
Am I the kind of girl you marry?

Sap Season
03:14
|
|

I don't need an explaination
You don't have to be my friend
Strawberries are out of season
Bought a bag of apples instead
Pine needles are falling again
I don't want to change your life
I don't want to be your ex wife
Can you hear the time pass by?
The apple of nobody's eye
Pine needles are falling again
Do you think you have the right
To move away and make me cry
Gave it the old Ohio Try
I still see you in the sky
Can't you see that it's sap season?
The trees are crying for no reason
Baby it must be sap season
The tears are falling for no reason

Moon
03:36

The moon was full, the highway empty
I could drive til we reach the sea
I never tire around you, darling
You do the trick like a cup of tea
And just like the sun calls out to the moon
I''m calling, I'm calling out to you
The diner's full, my cup is empty
The Highway Queen, she speaks to me
In words that I'm too dumb to write down
In signs that I'm too blind to see
And just like the sun holds on to the moon
You're pulling and I'm falling down to you
My heart is full, my brain is empty
The sky is clean and yellowy
Please never turn your lights out on me
Please never dim the stars you breathe
And just like the sun gives night to the moon
I'll carry the dark for you like a tune

The One Who
03:11

I love the one who goes to movies alone
I love the one who doesn't have a phone
I love the one who has never been stoned
I love the one who leaves me alone
I love the one whose yard is overgrown
I love the one who's all skin and bone
I love the one who plays The Microphones
I love the one who leaves me alone
And when we kissed I cried
And when you left I died
I love the one who gets drunk every night
I love the one who wants to start a fight
I love the one who is always right
I love the one who will always be mine
And when you shook my hand
I never felt more like a man
I love the one who dreams in black and white
I love the one who makes breakfast at night
I love the one who lets the bedbugs bite
I love the one who will always be mine
