It took me over slow like Novocain
The days keep blending into one
Excuse me miss could you please tell me where I’m walking I just moved here
When all the medicine is gone
I think it’s time to go
I think it’s time to go

It’s hard to drive away from easy street
I know it all adds up on paper
I’m gonna take that paper burn it up and brighten up the night
I guess we needed to slow down
But now it's time to go
Now it’s time to go

So sell the furniture I’ll call you when the conversation is over
Baby pack your suitcase I’m taking you home
I should’ve never turned my back on all the songs that I was too afraid to write
And now they keep me up at night
So let’s go back home and forget we ever left there

I walked a path I’d never seen before
Behind the fences at Point Judith
Can you believe in all the years we’ve come here how we never knew
Sometimes I look too far offshore
But now it’s time to go
Yeah I don't want to look anymore

So sell the furniture I’ll call you when the conversation is over
Baby pack your suitcase I’m taking you home
I should’ve never turned my back on all the songs that I was too afraid to write
And now they keep me up at night
So let’s go back home and forget we ever left there

I just wanna make a good enough living to love you like I do
But I was never any good if there isn’t a crowd for me to lose   
Shame on me for stealing a couple good years away from you

So let’s go back home and forge
Go back home and forget we ever
Go back home and forget we ever left there

Wake me up when we get there
Take your turn to drive
My eyes are feeling heavy and you know I ain’t the coffee kind
Make a home in Manhattan
The Kingston county line
I know you hate decisions honey go ahead and take your time

It's been a long time coming but we finally grew a little older
And we can't keep running for the sun when the weather the turns colder
And our friends can't help us at all
It's got me falling so small
When you don't know what to do
Even love can be lonesome too

Can’t sleep in like we used to
I worry all the time
Yeah my heart lost the stomach for just waiting on the fire signs
And if the chain smoking boy from 12 years ago
Was knocking on your door tonight  
When he held out his hand and called for you
Would you walk out of my life

It's been a long time coming but we finally grew a little older
And we can't keep running for the sun when the weather the turns colder
And our friends can't help us at all
It's got me falling so small
When you don't know what to do
Even love can be lonesome too

Oh baby I don’t want to fight
But every time I try to talk to you the words don’t come out right
And oh loving like a Rock and Rye
When you’re only having one so sweet but two has got a little bite
Just a couple Roman candles laughing at the dynamite
Just a couple Roman candles laughing at the dynamite

It's been a long time coming but we finally grew a little older
And we can't keep running for the sun when the weather the turns colder
And our friends can't help us at all
It's got me falling so small
When you don't know what to do
Even love can be lonesome too

Yeah she’s reading in the bed
And I’m as tired as they come
We’ve been driving home for hours just buzzing like the power lines
Reading in the bed and I’m tired as they come
There’s a hushing in her heart
As the highway driving’s done
Red New England sunset rolling out of Watertown
Reading in the bed and I’m tired as they come

But oh
She’s such a lovely sight
And oh
I think we’re making love tonight

We was dancing on the porch
To an old familiar song
Yeah my baby knows her way around a radio
Dancing on the porch to an old familiar song
And now she’s brushing out her hair
Do you like it when it’s long?
Honey you could wear your hair any way you wanted to
Nothing's gonna shake a feeling this strong

And oh
She’s such a lovely sight
And oh
I think we’re making love tonight

I don’t need anything more
The way you look at me you know you're turning me on
And when the light goes out there’s something in store
Just the way you look at me I know you're loving me all night
Baby all night long

We was dancing on the porch
To that old familiar song
Yeah my baby knows her way around a radio
Dancing on the porch to an old familiar song

And oh
She’s such a lovely sight
And oh
I think we’re making love tonight

Talking at the bar talking in the bed
Dancing in the streetlights kissing all the freckles on your head
The beggars on the bridge drink and carry on
Listen to the singers at Au P'tit Bonheur La Chance

Rain
We shared an umbrella all day
I thought we were better than old clichés
Lovers lost in the Marais

The heiress in the mews told us where to go
Cozy little red cafe with an antique telephone
The table by the street we shared a cigarette
A simple conversation love that I know we won't forget

Snow
Your hands in my pockets all day
I thought we were better than old clichés
Lovers lost among the streets of the Marais
We broke the lamp at our hotel
Making love in the bed while the shattered glass fell

Let's run away you said
Find us a room for rent
Call all our friends back in the States
And tell them we ain't coming home
So could you pick up our mail and turn up the heat so the pipes don't freeze
J'ai deux amours vous et Paris
Talking in the bar talking in the bed
Dancing in the streetlights kissing all the freckles on your head

Time pieced us together this way
Nothing is better than old clichés
Lovers lost among the streets of the Marias
