We sit and stare 'til it gets old The summer heat drops to a cold breeze My bare feet? in the grass Content to stay here and watch time lapse Dandelion growing in the cracks My eyes fix just a past The horizon where space and god all laugh And it all shrinks to a view and then falls flat Happy are we with them gospel songs And a quiet place where we can watch the streetlights turn on An empty house filled up with a select few And some stars Now I'm hopin' that my car will start Prolonged stars are not in the cards tonight Perfect timing and a favourite window And sleep right up ahead Happy are we with them gospel songs And a quiet place where we can watch the streetlights turn on An empty house filled up with a select few And some stars
