Danny Michel - Sweet things lyrics

Counting out quarters at the record shop London Calling and the Pressure Drop Skipping double dutch with your sister's friends The landlord's calling for the rent again If all I have is all I need And all I need is all I have Then why is all I ever want is more Why can't I see the sweet things until they're all gone Sitting on the gra** at your mother's grave Staring at the letters that spell my name Stars still shine in a sky blue sky You just gotta look with better eyes I lay face down in the summer dirt My ear pressed into the conducting earth I hear radio waves and ghosts that fizzle and fade It's ten years later now You said I wondered about your age I said I got ID'd today You said "ya, I get that too It's like we'll never die Just grow younger every day" Shoebox photos and birthday cards I've got an old tube amp and no guitar Living in a Salvation Army shoe All we had was me and you
