Josiah and the Bonnevilles - Youth And Dreams Lyrics

Josiah and the Bonnevilles Lyrics

"Youth And Dreams"

You were in the basement
Tellin' me I didn't have to leave
Said, "Baby, let's face it
I'm gettin' out of Tennessee"

Skin of your neck, blood on my teeth
I found God on a burned CD
You were upset, saw the tears stream
My mind was on tires and gasoline

I don't know what I'm sayin'
Somethin' 'bout youth and dreams
Which one of them is wasted?
And which one is you and me?

Well, it turns out I'm a liar
I learned that a long time ago
Bird upon a wire
Fly a little higher, then head on home

The skin of your neck, blood on my teeth
Sign my name on a state ID
Hand on that catch, back on your street
Fresh regret handed out for free

I don't know what I'm sayin'
Somethin' 'bout youth and dreams
Which one of them is greatness?
And which one is you and me?

I know I told you not to wait
Baby, did you wait for me?
And I know it's gettin' late
I gotta know now, did you wait for me?

I don't know what I'm sayin'
Somethin' 'bout youth and dreams
Which one of them is fadin'?
And which one is you and me?
