Grady and Dubose |
Try to take nothing for granted |
Like breakfast, and breathing, and short term memory |
Sometimes it gets so cold you almost cant stand it |
To remember is to be reminded so insensitively |
But it’s hard not being told who to be |
The tradeoff is incredible just to feel that you’re free |
The best trapeze artists perform with no nets |
No one ever won a jackpot on a gentleman’s bet |
Yeah, you wake up from your best dream just to find your bed wet |
What life ever comes without a hint of regret? |
So you can drive to Indiana |
Visit your metal friends in Savanna |
Or fly to England on a plane |
And no, no one can say that you are far away |
There are memories, warm feelings which will always remain |
Like college radio late nights, |
And heart to hearts, curbsides |
The sheer beauty of which there are not words to explain |
The ghosts in the attic sure beat TV static |
We were up all night, quite close to insane |
And all the time learning from each other how to keep out the rain |
We do not demand surrender |
It’s not the reason why we came |
All we ask is, «may we enter?» |
And wonder, is everything okay? |
(That was good) |
