lyrics

You can’t
Take the town’s picture
But everybody knows
The scene
I say
We couldn’t be richer
Because we’re not alone anymore
It’s them and us
We drive to the river
The water’s not high enough
Life is a dream and a lecture
We’re told not to fly so much

This town, you know
It don’t surprise me, no
And where you go
It don’t surprise me

Shallow lines become deeper
Can love grow to be so old?
I hear the waves from the miles
A horn into the unknown
Only your first and your last name
Speak so honestly, you know
I have a broad sense of question
Can you give earth to the soul?

This town, you know
It won’t surprise me know
And where you go
Won’t surprise me no
This town you know
It don’t surprise me no
And where you go
Oh….
