Generous and young Won't you pull me like a con And slam me like a hammer While i'm sinking like an anchor And watch me shake my shame Like a flag in a parade And wear it on my sleeve Frail like my busted knee Busy as a honey bee's Hard labor in a summer breeze With you lying next to me Our tandem breath a swollen symphony This is a goal towards which you work Not a trinket that you find I added to an apology About my peace of mind The highways only lonesome If you've got no where to go I'm headed north Tacoma bound To see an angel that i know Change me like a chord The minor two to the major four A break in the clouds A luxury that i can finally afford Hey baby I ain't innocent I might of said some things I never meant A mother would be mortified If she'd known about the things I lied But here in your attic nest Where garden gnomes guard the steep ascent Close the door like a clasp Let it happen baby let it last
