Why Not Live Here

It was the light, it was the flame

It was the fine shape of your chin

It was the night all full of grace

That shed every line, every restraint

You can move

But why not live here awhile?

You can move

But why not live here awhile?

It was the miles under our heels

It was the blue shine on her blank face

That shocked me to move, make something real

And I'm hoping you know where to take me

You can move

But why not live here awhile?

You can move

But why not live here awhile?

I see your pain on you like smoke

See when it rains, your steam in your clothes

Everyone sees, everyone knows

Don't try to hide, dear, that's how it goes

You can move

But why not live here awhile?

You can move

But why not live here awhile?
