Lyrics

Shoulders back
Sit straight, do it now you'll thank me later
Didn't ever think about why
Unload the car, and fumble the fifths
Say I hate you had to see my like this
If you didn't want me seeing
Then you shouldn't have been leaving
Cause every time I open the garage
I'd pray she's back from New England
Returning from her mission
And we get to spend the afternoon large
So long, so long
Is a common catchphrase
Backstroke real slow
Slipping out the front door
Distracted by the dinner she made
Oh women
No two are the same
Each one is like a snowflake
Beauty in their own way
Magic that you can't recreate
Spruce up the couch
Clean up a little
Helping with sideways house
We were down bad and breaking
I was making bacon
Swearing I was getting you out
If you wanted to
Did you think I was gonna just slide?
Pair of old companions
I thought we were champs
Making any takers go down
Said love, Say love
It's a beautiful thing
If you're lucky enough to get it
Then make sure you go and keep it
Cause you might not get the chance again
Oh women
Oh women
No two are the same
Got yourself a little girly
That you want to marry surely
And you're hoping that she feels that way
True love
I'm on the cusp
Think that this could be the one
Bad luck
Eat my dust
Don't come and spoil the fun
True love
I'm on the cusp
Think that this could be the one
Bad luck
Eat my dust
Don't come and spoil the fun
Backstroke telling folks
Feels like someone cut the rope
Pack up the pictures and leave
It was less than amusing
Everything confusing
Didn't know which path to lead
Could it be the city?
Could it be the town?
Could it be the people that she knows around?
She made way for New England
Pasts are forgiven
Taking up the tailwind now
I said love
Said love
It's a beautiful thing
If you're lucky enough to get it
Then make sure you go and keep it
Cause you might not get the chance again
I said love
Said love
It's a beautiful thing
If you're lucky enough to get it
Then make sure you go and keep it
Cause you might not get the chance again
