Picking up sound on the interstate
I am my breath
Letting in waves.
There will be time when the sleep I'm in
Covers me whole
Covers me thin
I know I'll wake up old,
Forgetting which box this is in.
How I will keep you,
Just how I left you.
Our daughter once told me I know a lot
Now I'm strutting off with more than I've got
A hitchhiker told me I don't talk a lot
It made me feel fine,
Made me quiet.
If you'd have said it right
Instead of painting words white...
How I would keep you
Just how I left you.
Come on say it right.
