lyrics

We ended late last night and on the bike ride home
you told me just about everything
and it hit me too just as I turned down Tustin home
you know? you know you know you know

and goddammit we will never burn this bright again
I've got this feeling that we're peeling off our layers of friends
and oh Crawford I don't think we'll ever feel this brave
we used to dig to China, now we're just digging graces
and oh I hope we're going places
and oh I hope we're going places

I need this lovely town to forget me
I need this chocolate old fashioned to forget about it
I need these dreamy eyes to surrender
if only I remember what it takes
when we come home christmas break

We ended late last night at Oh Those Donuts
you told me just about everything
and our bikes just watched as we drank our milk real slow
you know? you know you know you know

and holy shit we'll never drive through old town Orange again
we'll never blaze in your garage, I'll never baby sit Ben
and we'll give up cause staying in touch is way too hard
I'll call you on your birthday
you'll send me Christmas cards
and oh I hope we both are happy
and oh I hope we both are happy

I need this lovely town to forget me
I need this chocolate old fashioned to forget about it
I need these dreamy eyes to surrender
if only I remember what it takes
when we come home christmas break

Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine. Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip
