Tire Swing
I took the Polaroid down in my room, I'm pretty sure you have a new girlfriend. It's not as if I don't like you, It just makes me sad whenever I see it. Cause I like to be gone most of the time, And you like to be home most of the time. If I stay in one place I lose my mind. I'm a pretty impossible lady to be with. Joey never met a bike that he didn't want to ride, And I never met a Toby that I didn't like. Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended, Even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended. I had a dream that had to drive to Madison To deliver a painting for some silly reason. I took a wrong turn and ended up in Michigan. Paul Baribeau took me to the giant tire swing. Gave me a push and he started singing I sang along while I was swinging. The sound of our voices made us forget everything That had ever hurt our feelings. Joey never met a bike that he didn't want to ride, And I never met a Toby that I didn't like. SongtexteScotty liked all of the books that I recommended, Even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended I wouldn't be offended. Now I'm home for less than twenty-four hours. That's hardly time to take a shower, Hug my family and take your picture off the wall, Check my email write a song and make a few phone calls. Before it's time to leave again, I've got one hand on the steering wheel One waving out the window. If I'm a spinster for the rest of my life, My arms will keep me warm on cold and lonely nights. Joey never met a bike that he didn't want to ride, And I never met a Toby that I didn't like. Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended, Even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended (Thanks to Anya for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
