"Thrift Store Dress" lyrics

"Thrift Store Dress"

I've got that far away sadness behind my eyes again
And I know you can see it, you can always look right in
I try to hold a smile as we roll on for miles
Playing songs for strangers in towns that aren't ours

Let that old time music burn a hole in my chest
Burn a hole in my chest
See you laying in the grass in that thrift store dress
In that thrift store dress

Now I never know I'm leaving all the places I want to stay
Until I realize the feeling that I love has gone away
And it makes me want to have children, build a house that can't be moved
Still I'm thankful in my wandering that I'm wandering with you

Let that old time music burn a hole in my chest
Burn a hole in my chest
See you laying in the grass in that thrift store dress
In that thrift store dress

It's a design as pure as any that a woman makes a man
Better than he is when he's trying to understand
The world from an island he built of lonesome dreams
At night you sing to parts of me that I haven't ever seen

Let that old time music burn a hole in my chest
Burn a hole in my chest
See you laying in the grass in that thrift store dress
In that thrift store dress
