When the sun comes up we’ll gone Hit the road and head out east We won’t wait It’s too late, we’ll be on the lake by quarter to eight now Turn the radio off it’s ok We both saw the weather on the tv It’s just you and me Your daughter she’s asleep in the back seat Live hard and die young Life is harder when you love someone We did it all for fun We’ve got lines and lure and bate But if we run out we can share You don’t care we fished it cause it was there now Wild skies In her eyes She holds my hand and i can see Big tears Ten years She knows pain but she don’t know me Will I ever be Summers become falls Strong and able when we had it all Standing free and walking tall Look in my eyes son Life is harder when you love some one We did it all

Put It Away 04:53
So unbalanced So unfair Think the world’s out for you Just your luck Sold out of love When the world’s Got you down They’re not out to get you Nothing against you Put it away away away way away away way Put it away away away way away away way Push yourself to the edge When the world’s Got you down So unbalanced So unfair

She did yoga way back in the sixties It was an eastern thing She was ahead of her time He met her some time around eighty-two He wore a business suit She made fun of his tie Divorced twice but doin’ alright Was this girl’s attitude Yeah this girl had attitude She got into some stuff in the seventies She met a professor, there was a law suit She didn’t have money to pay the bill Eighty-two read it afterwards “Who the hell cares,” he said They take on the world together There’s a special kind of sunlight That creeps through the windows In nineteen eighty-two Yeah nineteen eighty-two Quebec City, nineteen eighty-two They rented a loft apartment And drank Pepsis He took her to parties She didn’t have money, she didn’t have money So he helped buy her groceries They steamed mussels for New Years “Don’t worry, I’ll go back to school And then we’ll be happy.” She said in eighty-three Yeah nineteen eighty-three One day his mother called She was a crazy one He had to go back home She didn’t know just where he was from Somewhere in Europe maybe No, she didn’t really know In nineteen eighty-three She hasn’t seen him since eighty-three She said she might look him up on Facebook But somehow I doubt it Yeah somehow I doubt it

Robot 03:53
Will we wait for days Just to be next to each other And we hold on close to the Moments that we have It was me who froze and You just wonder How we can't believe we Don't know each other How do I say I love you? How do I say I love you? Will we wait till we've lost One thing or another Till we find the words to Express ourselves

Whipping cream and tea You take the frozen aisle I’ll get the coffee If that’s all we need We’d better be going And then you and I can quietly confer And try to understand the universe We’ll plot our lives among the stars Between hanging up the laundry And unloading the car We’ll map our way to outer space Between cherishing our Fridays And letting Sundays go to waste It’s all so ordinary What is ordinary? Nothing’s wrong Can you really say That it’s all right? Everybody knows That where we are Is nowhere Just because It’s been this way Doesn’t make it right Times are hard But at least we’re Alive Drury misery Never liked fall much And it’s getting colder Nothing’s on TV Why am I not surprised But at least this couch is big enough for two And I can think of something we should do Nothing’s wrong Nothing’s wrong No, no, nothing’s wrong No really nothing’s wrong Help me out I’d like to say That it’s alright Everybody knows That this place Ain’t nowhere Just because It’s been this way Doesn’t make it right Times are hard But at least we’re Alive
