If Work Permits

歌曲歌詞

So the wind that blows across your room

Carried cheap perfume onto your dresser

It rained for jewelry and for credit cards

Two tickets to a film i don't remember

One day youll kiss your rabbits nose pick up the phone

To find i've been turned over

And youll grab that piece of gold

Only to find that the smell has taken over

Now all the things you had they arent the same

As what you hold

I'm standing in a room

Its filled with older folks pleading baby listen

And i scream as loud as anyone

But when asked to make a point i tend to whisper

Now highways turn to tidal waves

Theyre asking me to export all of your insecurities

But that wind that blows across your room

Its gonna set the sails and send me back to you

Sometimes when sailors are sailing

They think twice about where theyre anchoring

And i think i could make better time of my time on land

Ill drink less

Cause lord knows i could use a warm kiss

Instead of a cold goodbye

I'm writing the folks back home to tell them

hey i'm doing alright

Its a shame what your father did to your brothers head
