July For Kings - 100 Pianos lyrics

Michigan lakes Remember we moved a 100 pianos in one day For some kind of show My brother was m.i.a. We met in july I think we were swimming at the lake when pope paul died I thought to myslef "you'd make the perfect bride" If i could make you laugh If i could make you laugh If i could make you laugh If i could make you laugh Would you have stayed when i left? I can still recall your taste it's all i kept That town was such a waste But you i won't forget Work was steady enough When everyone wanted uprights in their basement dens Unfinished houses they were just built right in My mom and dad I still think my leaving was the thing that did them in I came back for the wakes I never came home again If i could make you laugh If i could make you laugh If i could make you laugh If i could make you laugh Would you have stayed when i left? I can still recall your taste it's all i kept That town was such a waste But you i won't forget I never could forgot Was it love or just a play It seems a million years away Sometimes i see you in my sleep Muddy water on your feet The sun was shining on your hair I reach your hand but you're not there I hope you're laughing all the time I hope you still can read my mind I hope you're laughing all the time I hope you're laughing all the time All the time All the time I think in the spring I'll go back and buy one of those pianos learn to play I'm setting aside a couple of hours a day
