[Verse 1]
I was watching the sun paint a reckless skyline
Could be sitting on a front porch with a summer sigh
There's a beacon of some sort, light to galvanize
I never have dry land, always have sky
[Verse 2]
I was walking to the water, took the long way around
Heart dry as tinder hardly made a sound
I waited on the answer, hand turned to brine
I never have patience, I always have time
I always have time, I always have time
Never have patience, always have time
[Verse 3]
I was waiting on my old man working five to nine
Kept looking for a loophole to help him kill the time
Dry as any desert, he drank everything in sight
He never has water, he always has wine
He always has wine, he always has wine
He never has water, always has wine
[Verse 4]
And can you keep the pain out and just let in the breeze
When I leave the door open the wind blows in all the leaves
Will I know when I get there or just drive on by
I never have answers, I only ask why
I only ask why, I only ask why
I never have answers, only ask why
[Verse 5]
Where is my daughter? Where is my son?
Will he be honest? She strong enough?
How they sparkle, brightest penny you'll find
You'll never be ready, always be fine
[Verse 6]
January sidewalk, your hand to mine
Found every reason to lay or lie
Old pair of blue jeans, pair of denim eyes
I'll never be yours
