well our friends on the front porch |
| [00:13.75] |
where they're telling jokes and they swing on |
| [00:16.66] |
swiftly towards happier times |
| [00:19.40] |
they're expending the lines |
| [00:22.04] |
and finding more energy for the effort |
| [00:26.20] |
and getting distance from that front porch spotlight |
| [00:31.12] |
but us we found peace in the shadows |
| [00:35.90] |
long enough to see the monsters rise |
| [00:40.49] |
candy's got some space to fill in her daydreams |
| [00:46.31] |
living high on yesterday's lies |
| [00:50.01] |
talking to me about some 0% interest |
| [00:55.30] |
and how she got a better deal than the next guy |
| [00:59.05] |
and the way the lightning shocked us |
| [01:05.46] |
when we were lost and we were looking |
| [01:11.45] |
down that long missouri highway |
| [01:14.59] |
your hair was longer then and now I can remember |
| [01:19.76] |
see now well i remember oh so well |
| [01:23.22] |
oh the roads unencumbered by cats |
| [01:28.60] |
they're burning like wet matches through my miracle mile mind |
| [01:33.00] |
you left your thumbprint inside me now for months it seems |
| [01:39.80] |
but mine only brushes your soft surface |
| [01:42.99] |
and somehow somehow it leaves me listless |
| [01:50.00] |
my tongue curls under my lips oh yes |
| [01:55.40] |
so I cant speak to tell you of the months before I met you |
| [02:01.85] |
and the way the truth it locked us |
| [02:15.59] |
right about the time after the lightning shocked us |
| [02:22.29] |
when we were young when we were young and missing |
| [02:30.23] |
round that small new england byway |
| [02:38.54] |
our lives they were sheltered then |
| [02:40.98] |
and I now I can remember |
| [02:43.60] |
say now i remember so well |
| [02:46.29] |
almost too well |
| [02:48.59] |
well its not even being about that anymore |
| [02:52.05] |
I gotta get you down |
| [02:53.95] |
those tiny fragments of perfection they please me in a time |
| [02:58.75] |
unchanged when its not the same beginning |
| [03:02.70] |
or along awaited end |
| [03:04.60] |
if I knew all the words I would write myself out of here |
| [03:11.80] |
if I was all the colors I would paint you pretty in gold in a picture |
| [03:17.43] |
so I'm told little sister |
| [03:20.14] |
so now I'm sold little sister |
| [03:22.53] |
why don't you tell me about the sunsets in sweden, |
| [03:25.62] |
and the laws of eden |
| [03:27.08] |
and how you were the rock of gibraltar |
| [03:29.34] |
and how they called you foxy |
| [03:31.68] |
well that's another whole box of pandoras |
| [03:35.68] |
that's another whole box of them ties |
| [03:38.28] |
slide your foot off the gas |
| [03:39.78] |
before we crash right back into the median |
| [03:42.32] |
right back into the median the median |
| [03:45.83] |
it separates our house |
| [03:50.38] |
from the middle of the street |
| [03:53.91] |
it separates our house |
| [04:01.41] |
on the middle of the street |
| [04:03.61] |
