I have these dreams I’m walking home
home where it used to be
everything is as it was
frozen in front of me

here I stand six feet small
romanticizing years ago
well it’s a bittersweet feeling
hearing “Wrapped Around Your Finger” on the radio

and these days
I wish I was six again
oh make me a red cape
I wanna be Superman
oh if only my life was more like 1983
all these things would be more like they were at the start of me
I had it made in 83

thinking about my brother Ben
I miss him everyday
he looks just like his brother John
but on an eighteen month delay

no such thing
why georgia
my stupid mouth
your body is a wonderland
neon
city love
83
3×5
love song for no one
back to you
great indoors
not myself
st. patrick’s day

I’m writing you to catch you up on places I’ve been
you held this letter, probably get excited
but there’s nothing else inside it

don’t have a camera by my side this time
hope that I would see the world through both my eyes
maybe I would tell you all about it
when I’m in the mood
to lose my way
with words

today clouds are painting colors of the cowboy clich?
it’s strange how clouds all look like mountains
in the sky next to the mountains anyway

don’t have a camera by my side this time
hope that I would see the world through both my eyes
maybe I would tell you all about it
when I’m in the mood
to lose my way but let me say

you should have seen that sunrise
with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
you’ll be with me next time I go outside
just no more 3 by 5’s

don’t know why Tory came by
but I could see by the look in her eyes
Tory’d been driving ’round the town for a while

playing with the thought of leaving

don’t know why, but Tory just smiled
and mentioned something about how you were right
must have been hard to see through the tears she was hiding

she said “I might not be seeing him soon”
“I’ve got a few things I’ve been waiting to do”

hey, Tory came by
Tory came by tonight
hey, Tory came by
she says to say goodbye

looked outside at the car in the drive
and the suitcase on the back seat inside
sure it’s so she can’t look out behind at the road

she said “I might not be seeing him soon”
“I’ve got a few things I’ve been waiting to do”

hey, Tory came by
Tory came by tonight
hey, Tory came by
she says to say goodbye

don’t look down, she seemed alright
you might be asking where is Tory tonight?
somewhere out on the highway I’m sure she’ll be fine
