Letra de Hours Were the Birds

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 2]
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
