"Hours Were The Birds" Lyrics

I've got somethin' here, it's a chance
I'm'a make my changes as I go
And the city lights dance away the stars
I have met all kinds of reasons why the seasons leave their scars
I am thin as cinnamon, and tarnished like these metal cars
That drive along the rivers of the tar

I am weatherproof as the rain
And I've fooled every lover into drinking up my pain
I am hanging by the edges of my name, but I am warm
So comfortable forgetting 'bout the storm

I love Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado too
Atlanta and Montana, Nebraska in the moon
And you

I must have been a traveller inside of the womb
Never had a place with a living room
You said a house is a tomb

Well zoom, zoom, zoom
Here we go, Annie
No more planning
Isn't this dandy?
I've got you, and you've got me

I'm going back to the lake
This time of year it's frozen through
Ain't nothing gonna break
I'll take you there and show you where
I used to spend my time
Before working, before leaving, before wine

I love Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado too
Atlanta and Montana Nebraska in the moon
And you

Life is easy come and it's easy go, too
Hours were the birds, and I guess they flew
I just can't get a grip on this place, Billy Lou

Well zoom zoom zoom
Here we go, Annie
No more planning
Isn't this dandy
I've got you and you've got me
