Our friends on the front porch, jokes And they swing swiftly happier times lines and finding more energy for the effort And getting distance that front porch spotlight
But us, we found peace in Long enough to see the monsters Candy's got some space to in her daydreams Living on yesterday's lie
Talking to me some 0% interest And how she got a better deal than the guy And the way the shocked us When we lost And looking down long Missouri highway
Your hair was longer then and now I Oh, the roads unencumbered by They're burning like wet Through my miracle mind
You left thumbprint inside me Now for it seems But mine only brushes your surface And somehow it leaves me
My tongue curls my lips, oh yes So I can't speak to tell you of the months I met you And the way the truth, it us Right about the time the lightning shocked us
When we young and missing Round that New England byway Our lives they were sheltered then and I now I Well it's not even being that anymore
I gotta get you Those tiny fragments of please me in a time unchanged When not the same beginning Or along end
If I all the words I write myself out of here If I was all the I would paint you in gold in a picture So I'm told, little So now I'm sold, sister
Why you tell me about The sunsets in And the of Eden And how you the Rock of Gibraltar And how they called you
Well that's whole box of Pandora's That's another whole box of ties your foot off the gas Before we crash back into the median
It our house from the middle of the street Talking our house is on the front porch Telling jokes and they swing towards happier times Expending lines and finding energy for the effort
And getting distance from front porch spotlight But us we found peace in Long enough to see a die We all need to find a little space in our
Long enough and just so Long enough, just as long, just so As long enough, is it long enough? Is it long enough for me? Long enough for me to on
If it isn't, if it isn't, if it ain't, if it don't, if it can't it won't And that's just the way it goes
