Patty Griffin "Florida" |
Couple of young girls went Sailing down on A1A To the arms of florida Sailing down the highway Singing their heads off Protected by the Holy Ghost Flying in from the ocean Driving with their eyes closed The night want to kiss you deep And be on his way Pretend that he don't know you The very next day Isn't it hard sometimes Isn't it lonely I'll still hang around here There's nothing to hold me You slide down into the sea Twelve hours on you feet Get the tide to wash away Thousands and thousands of days Someone you never meet Signs the check you get every week He tries to but can't forget All the strangers you met Every night never holds you Nothing anyway Makes promises that he never intends To keep everyday Isn't it hard sometimes Isn't it lonely I'll still hang around here There's nothing to hold me Everytime, every year, travelers come and go You seem landing with their pale wings And flying back to the snow Summer comes marching in With its heavy boots on Kicking along the backtop Sidewalks of A1A The young girls in their bare feet Cigarette smoking Looking every which way Wishing and hoping And you want the night just to let you sleep And be on his way Wrap you up in some cool sheets And have nothing to say Isn't it hard sometimes Isn't it lonely I'll still hang around here There's nothing to hold me Nothing to hold me Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
