I thank my friend, Kiki, for painting pictures for this song. He knows about the moon and the stars. And coyotes. Having a place to hide so's you don't have to run anymore. or, at least, for a little while. When you look up at the stars it's a great reminder of how vast our universe is and what treasures there are still to be found. |
|
There's no name on the back of your belt |
|
you're strong and you're sturdy but somethin ain't right |
|
most of the feelings you've ever felt |
|
cot lost in the early mornin light |
|
& you know how to hold 'em, know how to hold 'em tight |
|
Rumors don't phase you, they draw and erase you |
|
leave you Like signs in the rain |
|
if nobody finds it and the paint has worn off of it |
|
there's not much there to explain |
|
'cept YOU know how to hold em, know how yo hold'em tight |
|
& you know how to find me if you need somewhere to hide. |
|
CHORUS: |
|
Where you get stars on the ceiling, stars in your eyes |
|
stars that don't talk much 'til they fall from the sky. |
|
There's an old bed in the back of your truck and navajo blankets |
|
and a bottle of jack |
|
it looks like a suitcase and runs like a greyhound |
|
looks like it's been to the moon and back |
|
and you know how to hold 'em, know how to hold'em tight |
|
you know how to find me if you need somewhere to hide... |
