(Ba da ba ba ba da da…) x 8

I would be overstated
If I said I knew you well
That I knew you well
When you flew through that windshield
And your life passed reel the reel
Was there a bit part for me?
I made a wish for you
Blew out the sun so it'd come tru

I've been waiting all night long,
I've been waiting to sing your song,
Tonight, if you help me,
Just help me find your key.
I run my hands down your neck,
Across your back to another fret,
I know you're fragile, bound to self destruct…

I can see right through your s

Let's join the new teens
yeah let's join their army
and hang out at bus stops
swapping high school stories
scare away travelers
chain smoke and laugh all day (a-ay)
go away to college
skip class and fuck all day
praise west pitsfield for bein' yeah just breathin'<

Morning comes to a stuttering halt,
Cool breezes blow, it's somebody's fault
As summer heat tries to burn through and
I look over to warn you that something's happening.

Morning glories climb the wall, and
You speak in a slow drawl and
I'm trying to piece together wha

And hey "Mr. For Real," sir,
we're in it for fun
and have you heard the news, sir?
We're in it for free

And with a kiss, yeah, you'd be so sure,
we'll put a laughtrack on for you, dear,
a million and one excuses
the homes are full of spies

We're all over waiti

half by sea
through the isthmus over the cape they're roundin
and over land
follow the shallow ribbon of the plaid

in el dorado ways
the avalance
and the boys are off to see
the elephants

how does it feel
to roam this land like Harte and Twain di

High above the border town
I can see the golden ground
If I wasn't looking down,
I might have lost you in the miles

Ocean blue and foaming white
Surround the body of my flight
'Cause I flew out of sight
You were turning in the stars

And I know what it

High above the bordertown I can see the golden ground If I wasn't looking down I might have lost you in the miles Ocean blue and foaming white Surround the body of my flight As I flew out of sight You

[Verse 1] Everything's alright It takes a strength beyond strength to smile I'm missing you like hurricanes I give them names but their waves keep rolling [Pre-Chorus] On and on and on and on

Everything's all right
It takes a strength beyond strength to smile
I'm missing you like hurricanes
I'd give 'em names but their waves keep rolling
On and on and on and on

My sails are tattered, they're worn bone thin

I will be the king
All I need is the comfort o

See that girl, right over there
she hails from the land above
When the air gets cold up there
she bundles up with her bearskin rug

God's gift to us is canadian girls
God's gift to us is canadian girls
God's gift to us is canadian girls

Since the air's so cold up t

Bomb bombs away
So much safer than a loaded gun
And I won't blink
Cause you're softer than a sharpened blade
And I need you and you need me

Nah nah nah nah (6x)

Bomb, bombs away So much safer than a loaded gun And I won't blink 'Cause you're softer than a sharpened blade And I need you And you need me Na, na-na na Na, na-na na Na, na-na na Na, na

my cheeks are red and now are swollen from the kisses
the strangers dance next to me
waiting on the sunrise or the armagedeon
it doesnt matter
which ever comes first
did you see those fireworks exploding far
and fade like tears
its where i waited
its where

Being young's romantic
The tourists smile and say cheese
It's sad when you're just a postcard
Dolores has got herself a lie

Frozen you last forever
Got Shakespeare in the personals
Our palms read fragile lifelines
That stretch a hundred miles or more

And hey,

Come on (x7)

I swear in the dark where she's romancin'
past the line where they're wall dancin'
and the skin she sheds won't lie awake
she won't lie awake
Roses are redder than the dirt that sparkles in her hair

Rum shots with the star leather prom princess

here there floats an island of saints
apprentice boys and girls say hi
to devils that waste their time
and they fall when shoes don't fit them so well
slingback pumps and lounges
it's where we go to cheer them on

Here there floats
an island of saints
Apprentise boys and girls
to Devils that waste their time
And they fall when shoes don't fit them so well
slip back pumps and lounges
it's where we go to cheer them on

Riders on the right won't you help me?
It's crowded and

Your last words will not be heard
There are too many of them, no one deserves
I don't need your love
Land mines, hiding your lines, too many maps, and not enough signs
I don't need your love
So light the way, so wide awake
Cause in my dreams i'm dyin'
And wait for lig

goodness knows its been a wonderful run
the autumn lakes where the children were swans
your mothers convictions and your fathers predictions dont seem so insane
they laugh they say your treasures are fake but dont throw it away
youve been framed with a beautiful name
