Minor Kingdom - Brita's Song lyrics

So much for the parting gifts The pictures you took The prints They won't fade And so much for the magazines The books you'll read Now you're away Leaving home How long will you stay? The trails of her gasoline Burning up freeways And all those rocks in the road Better shuffle your feet They'll roll you down It's easy to lose Start saving now And so much for intuition God's imperfect vision The men and the games They will play And so much for paint and canvas The undiscovered atlas The pages they wait They wait for you Leaving home How long will you stay? The trails of her gasoline Burning up freeways And all those rocks in the road Better shuffle your feet They'll roll you down It's easy to lose Start saving now
