[Verse 1]
If the trials at hand
Are really getting you down
We had a close call
I didn't even see it
Then another one
I hardly believed it at all
What the writers say
It means sh** to me now
Plants and animals
We're on a bender
When it's 80 degrees at the end of December
What's going on?
Only for you and me
[Verse 2]
When the showing up ends
Who's going back to the south?
Where hungry necks that I know
And running the blender in a lightning storm
Are disguised as a blessing I'm sure
Growing up here
There comes a fork in the road
Pants have gotta go
We're on an island on the Fourth of July
It looks like the tide is going home
In time I'd find a little way to your heart
Down to the general store for nothing specific
Gonna wash my bones in the Atlantic shore
Only for you and me
