Four muddy tires speeding past a meridian
How I love the colour of your skin
Can’t wait to see your torn vinyl interior
Turn the radio up and disappear
Speeding past the bright lights of the suburbs
This treble screaming in my ear
Do you want to be together forever?
We can drive at high speed off of a cliff
I’m feeling so happy and I’ve never wanted more
Then to be here with my dream car

Where were you 22 years ago?
Licking palms and getting stoned
With a cropped mop top and a skateboard
I don’t recall your name
But you held my hand when I was low
In a parking lot of a corner shop
I don’t recall your name
but you held my hand when I was stoned
That was was 22 years ago
I can't recall your face anymore
Just the blown out bangs and the buzzing low
And halo glow from the parking lot
You gotta put yourself in my shoes
There never was any true beauty
Without a little bit of queer in the proposal
And I'm just making payments to some debt made at 13

Have you ever loved a girl who done held you in her little hand?
The kind of girl that makes you wanna dive all night to understand
I’m just a kind of foolish man
Who done take it way too slow
Cause I’m dumb
I should’ve hugged her, told her I loved her
Never, never let her go
Have you ever been with a man who wanna hold you in his big oldl hands?
The kind of guy that makes you wanna dive all night to understand
It’s the sound of a thousand butterflies
Flapping their wings in the early dawn
It’s the sight of a full moon rising
Over the hood of your car
I’m just a kind of foolish girl
Who done took it way too slow
Cause I’m dumb
I should’ve hugged him, told her I loved him
Never, never let him go

Laying and taking you from behind
Cocaine sniffing the New York Times
Close my eyes and this memory comes back to me
Laying and waiting, dining on hope
Words too heavy the song won’t float
Close my eyes and this old girl comes back to me
Memories can be a slight of hand
You’d think I’d be old enough to understand that
Oh I love you in love
Laying and taking you from behind
Cocaine sniffing the world’s headlines
Close my eyes and this old girl comes back to me
Laying and waiting, dining on hope
Words too heavy the page won’t float
Close my eyes and this memory comes back to me
Memories can be a slight of hand
You’d think I was old enough to understand that
I smile every time I see you with your man
Oh I love you in love

Rhythm of a Lonely Heart

Laying waiting close to your body
Are you with me? Baby don’t start to turn away
Be with me now
It’s the wisdom of a lonely heart
Are you with me? Baby don’t start
Don’t turn away, lay with me
If you don’t mind I’ll close my eyes
For me to take my rest
Who’ll be at my side when I close my eyes
When the day has past?
It’s the wisdom of a lonely heart
Are you with me? Baby don’t start
Don’t pull away, be with me now
I write these silly little songs
I believe every single word
Don’t hide it, sing into the darkness,
Be defiant
Of course I’m afraid try to be brave an enjoy these days
Who’ll be at my side when I close my eyes
To take my final rest?

Factory Lad

He’s not acting tough, he’s not laying around
It’s a bitter drug when love goes sour
He won’t come back, he’s not coming back
Will the kids mind if he stays out all night?
Categorically shy, with a devilish mind
He was a factory lad, dust on his soul, dust in his hair
But there was poetry there, yeah?
She won’t come back, she’s not coming back
