From the recording Love, And Other Misadventures
Lyrics
Looking for love but dying for change
Clutching to gold, though I know it won’t stay
Nothing comes true that don’t start as a dream
And nowhere for you is not somewhere for me
Time often turns what was shiny to rust
Trees turn to brown, and we all end in dust
When the rain didn’t stop, all our levees went bust
And washed out the pages in the story of us
Life isn’t something you squirrel away
There ain’t no tomorrows to live for today
Alone and afraid—today, hope’s out of range
I’ll pick another new date in the future to change
The wind will blow cold if the sun never shines
Your face will grow old with the passage of time
The places I’ve known are all no longer here
Wish I could just make this new world disappear
