Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We cut the legs off of our pants

Threw our shoes into the ocean

Sit back and wave through the daylight

Sit back and wave through the daylight

[Verse 2]

Slip and slide on subway grates

These shoes are poor man's ice skates

Fall through like change in the daylight

Fall through like change in the daylight

[Verse 3]

I miss yellow lines in my roads

Some color on monochrome

Maybe I'll paint them in myself

Maybe I'll paint them in myself

[Verse 4]

Maybe I'll paint them in myself

Maybe I'll paint them in myself

Maybe I'll paint them in myself

Maybe I'll paint them in myself

[Verse 5]

These sidewalks liquid, then stone

Building walls and an old pay phone

It rings like all through the daylight

It rings like all through the daylight

[Chorus]

And in the daylight, we can hitchhike to Maine

I hope that someday, I'll see without these frames

And in the daylight, I don't pick up my phone

'Cause in the daylight, anywhere feels like home

[Verse 6]

I have five clocks in my life

And only one has the time right

I'll just unplug it for today

I'll just unplug it for today

[Verse 7]

Open hydrant, rolled down windows

This car might make a good old boat

And float down Grand Street in daylight

And float down Grand Street in daylight

[Verse 8]

And float down Grand Street in daylight

And float down Grand Street in daylight

And float down Grand Street in daylight

And float down Grand Street in daylight

[Verse 9]

And with just half of the sunburn

New yellow lines that I earned

Step back and here comes the night time

Step back and here comes the night time

[Chorus]

And in the daylight, we can hitchhike to Maine

I hope that someday, I'll see without these frames

And in the daylight, I don't pick up my phone

'Cause in the daylight, anywhere feels like home

[Chorus]

And in the daylight, we can hitchhike to Maine

I hope that someday, I'll see without these frames

And in the daylight, I don't pick up my phone

'Cause in the daylight, anywhere feels like home
