Words and Music: Emily Saliers I'm gonna clear my head I'm gonna drink that sun The saddest sight my eyes can see Is that big ball of orange sinking slyly down the trees Sitting in a broken circle while you rest upon my knee This perfect moment will soon be leaving me Suzanne calls from Boston the coffee's hot the corn is high And that same sun that warms your heart will suck that good earth dry With everything its opposite enough to keep you cryin' Or keep this ol' world spinning with a twinkle in its eye Get out the map, get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down We'll leave the figurin' to those we pass on the way out of town Don't drink the water there seems to be something ailing everyone I'm gonna clear my head I'm gonna drink that sun I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young Joni left for South Africa a few years ago And then Beth she took a job all the way over on the west coast And me I'm still trying to live half a life on the road Seems I'm heavier by the year (heavier by the year) and heavier by the load (heavier by the load) Why do we hurtle ourselves through every inch of time and space I must say around some corner I can sense a resting place With every lesson learned a line upon your beautiful face We'll amuse ourselves one day with these memories we'll trace Get out the map, get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down We'll leave the figurin' to those who pass on the way out of town Don't drink the water there seems to be something ailing everyone I'm gonna clear my head (I'm gonna clear my head) I'm gonna drink that sun (I'm gonna drink that sun) I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young I'm gonna clear my head I'm gonna drink that sun I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young |
