|
She comes to me |
|
In her prewashed bright blue jeans |
|
Bag sewn tightly |
|
Pursed lips are kissing me |
|
Back up to college |
|
Just a few miles down the road |
|
And we remember |
|
Something we've never been told |
|
Come up on dry land |
|
I've had too much to drink |
|
I'm tired and need some sleep |
|
Come September |
|
Cold mornings open up |
|
Make incisions |
|
And cut egos will erupt |
|
What did you find |
|
Hidden in your mind's deep recess |
|
When the going gets tough |
|
You and I must take a rest |
|
Come up on dry land |
|
Your coming into your own |
|
But hey that's not my fault |
|
Come up on to this dry land |
|
Won't you let me lend a hand |
|
Come up on to this dry land |
|
And when I surfaced |
|
Mountains opened up like fish |
|
Breathe through gills now |
|
And I'm making one small wish |
|
With heaven beside me |
|
There is no one can do me harm |
|
But the devil inside me |
|
At least then I can stay warm |
|
Come up on dry land |
|
She understood her fate |
|
You can't take stands too late |
|
Come up on to this dry land |
|
Won't you let me lend a hand |
|
Come up on to this dry land |
