lyrics

You never really had a plan that I could tell
A cut unusual to where you’re from and mostly anytime you are
With a penchant for a quiet spiral awry unnoticed in your thoughts
You’re always going through
Something from a book or film or what you’ve just listened to
I think this is the greatest it’s so new

I wonder what we couldn’t learn from the stories of Lewis and Clark
On their long route out to the edge of the known
A lifetime by since we were learning how to rock and roll
And now we’re holding kids and hanging on
At times you seemed so far from me but always in my head
As close as anyone could really get
I wonder what we couldn’t learn from the stories of Lewis and Clark
On their long route out to the edge of the known

Did I embarrass you sometimes? I know I did
The way we behave in front of one another
Talk you off the peak of your garage man what’s got into you?
And why can’t you take it easy?
Well the towns where we grew took to glow arising off the black horizon line
Sunken in the night
A cast of tangerine thrown above the shimmer of the silver waves
Of paper husk
And you tip your head and tell a star confide in quiet voice
Your deepest wants in front of us
And the moon throws shadows soft it’s bright enough to see you speak

I wonder what we couldn’t learn from the stories of Lewis and Clark
On their long route out to the edge of the known
A lifetime by since we were learning how to rock and roll
And now we’re holding kids and hanging on
At times you seemed so far from me but always in my head
As close as anyone could really get
Show me my new favorite song and give me the words
One way or another you’re an author of my new-found sound
Living in a mix where everything is shared, I wonder what we couldn’t learn

And I wanna be somebody else for a moment, she said
Well suffering’s the way and everybody has the burden of their pain, explain
Well I hate to leave you here unassured of any future
That’s yours to tell me all about
Well here’s another one I don’t know how to end
Yeah, here’s another one I don’t know how to end.
