Ugly Purple Sweater - Willow lyrics

Take all you can you the wide-eyed believer there in the back of your mouth. Way, way up high In the treetops above us, There's a sound breaking clear, There's another one lept from the burl. This very year, you turned four and quarter past the time you was hoping to be. Now you are late, you are late you are late now, There's no turning around, You will always be late, don't you see. And you're biding your time. And you're biding your time. Gazing out as the day winds down. You're looking good You've had time to catch up on your sleep And your magazine stack, growing taller But you couldn't catch it no matter your running You've been swimming around But the surf and chop s** you in And you're biding your time. And you're biding your time. Gazing out as the day winds down. Back in the woods where there's no one around for miles and miles Singing out loud to the willows above. You're changing the words so they'll fit to the tune you've set them to Sing so the words might seem bigger and true, oh.
