Hours Were the Birds

歌詞

I've got somethin' here, it's a chance I'm'a make my changes as I go and the city lights dance away stars I've met all kinds of reasons why the seasons leave their scars I am thin as cinnamon and tarnished like these metal cars That drive along the rivers of tar I am weatherproof as the rain And I've fooled every lover into drinking up my pain I am hanging by the edges of my name, but I am warm So comfortable forgetting 'bout the storm I love Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado too Atlanta and Montana, Nebraska and the moon And you I must have been a traveller inside of the womb Never had a place with a living room You said a house is a tomb Well zoom, zoom, zoom Here we go, Annie No more planning Isn't this dandy? I've got you and you've got me I'm going back to the lake This time of year it's frozen through Ain't nothing gonna break I'll take you there and show you where I used to spend my time Before working, before leaving, before wine I love Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado too Atlanta and Montana, Nebraska and the moon And you Life is easy come and it's easy go too Hours were the birds and I guess they flew I just can't get a grip on this place, Billy Lou Well zoom zoom zoom Here we go, Annie No more planning Isn't this dandy? I've got you and you've got me
