[Verse 1] Fire escapes In case of heart break Disappear to Montreal, in this early fall season Something to believe in heaven saw that reason Now it's time to bare it all for your dreams, cut the keys then The bangs teasing, winter's cool breezing Free and a bird with nothing but time, I'm safe keeping Found my way seeking Darkened days are leaving Rain boots dance on muddy clay, I'm day dreaming He said, I heard your leavin' I said “Yeah, not eating right in the big city 3 years, no longer pretty, that wife for he” Take turns, my time to speak It burns some times, I wind through streets, unkind memories Grind to eat, make do of new beginnings No time to sleep, awake, takes to forgiving Taking time to read, A heartbreaking work of staggering genius Better yet, I'll always mean it When I tell you that I'll love you From the day that we met, I bet you think I say things I forget But try my best this time Cross my heart and hope for signs Ropa dopin' dimes, soak the grime out, wrung til dry Just to get by, bumping Kweli out a speaker's timber Peace to all the spirits gone, well, they sometimes linger Rain season, apologies, reasons, postdated, can't remember
Yeah, I'm running til November, sh** [Hook] Hanging out, all alone Montreal in the Fall Now we free to be chasing it all So long to yesterday Sipping wine in the middle of day, life is so much better this way So long he said Hanging out, Montreal in the Fall Now we free to be chasing it all Goodbye to yesterday Sticky greens at the start of the day I'll be running til May So long she said [Verse 2] In a peak of autumn breeze, changing times and changing leaves I saw my baby and me, the plot still ripens Just a peach in the sea, grows juicy indeed The Summer, how you leave me soft in slumber Turned my back you were gone, paper stacks not foregone for this love thing Look above but night still closing in Where does it end, where to begin Montreal daylight, fights within Wine and cheese in the day, Port Royal and the bay Belle province, vous commencer ca? Depeneur comme vous ne penser pas Spotlight and fancy cars, LA bigger stars Pre teen push up bras, that life ain't for me Sharpened life, but quiet journey Spark in flight, a riot churning One fire burning, no lie of a word My story hurt, these years they turn [Hook] [Masia One adlibing]
