lyrics

I went jogging around your neighborhood once to kill time
Oh I circled the pale cul de sac a few times to kill time
The lawns were cut clean, the trees were trimmed neat
The rocks were made of polyethylene
They didn’t fool me, perhaps they would fool someone

Now we find ourselves living in the kind of home we can make perfect
You know, a porch and a yard and room enough to make ourselves perfect
We talk of our hopes, pretend to buy homes
In the neighborhood we couldn’t dream to afford
And hope the nights clear up in time for the weekend

‘Cause the air smells of pine
Burning sap in the night
Oh I can’t see the sky but I bet it’s beautiful
Would you sit just for now
Catch my breath on your brow

Oh the blue has gone gray
But the sky looks beautiful, beautiful today

Now lay with me still in our bed let us listen to darkness
A dog in the distance, the cans rattling from the park block
The pulse of my thumb
The pulse of your thumb

‘Cause the air smells of pine
Burning sap in the night
Oh I can’t see the sky, but I bet it’s beautiful
Would you sit just for now
Catch my breath on your brow
Oh the blue has gone gray
But you sure are beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
