Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stranger flowers yet, there will never come a day that I will ever regret
The hours, days, years and the minutes
The joy, the pain, the sunshine and rain in it
The drives on the coast to nowhere, nothing to say, just sit and stare
There's nothing like the comfort of a silence that's comfortable
Not talkin' small, just skip the bull
[Verse 2]
Then I find myself in servility, didn't think that was my ability
I go a yard and a mile to make you smile but then I'm happy, see?
I got so many ways to make your gaze elliptical
Got a ways to go, future's so cryptical and I'm glad
Just another many things we've had
[Verse 3]
It's 8:16 A.M., will you wake up to me? First thing that you see
My eyes open, I'm just hopin' you feel the same as me
Day starts carefully, on the sidewalk with the dog
You're right, last night I was a hog, come on, I am sorry
It's 73 degrees, January easily glides, oh, easily glides
[Verse 4]
Stranger flowers still, if you're gonna wanna go another day, I will
Like this, make it a deal sealed with a kiss
Sealed with the peal of a permanent bliss
Today my love, we shall let the world slide
Turn off the ringer and just glide
For we will never be younger again than what you see
[Verse 5]
It's 8:16 A.M., will you wake up to me? First thing that you see
My eyes open, I'm just hopin' you feel the same as me
Day starts carefully, on the sidewalk with the dog
You're right, last night I was a hog, come on, I am sorry
Holiday on the radio, Billie knows that is the way to go, the way to go
[Verse 6]
A place where we both can spend our saved time, not collectin' interest
Maybe the same reason we always find ourselves homebound
I got to do some homework
The leave response, we want to leave Wisconsin
For a new life, for a trailer with an antenna and a porch
Of course, we'll bring the dog
