Текст песни American Primitive - Old 97's

Is that a cherry blossom or an eastern redbud
The sun setting in the west looks like fresh blood
The orange afterglow crashes off the rocky path
You're trying to act sad don't make me laugh
Straight-up hawks flyin' 'round above the new leaves
Nothing ever lasts forever time will never freeze
The peepers comin' out the crickets and the creek
A summer's all I need to watch you sleep

I got bricks for brains and my soul is strange
Rememberin' how to live American primitive

I'm always comin' home someday I'll finally get there
To smell the cherry blossoms lingering in your hair
The sun settin' and the circus gonna catch fire
It feels so good to finally fall off of that tight wire
Here we are now on the corner of a king size
The sun sparklin' in the corners of your eyes
A summer's all I need to watch you sleepin'
I'll tell you every single secret I been keepin'

You are better late yeah you're worth the wait
Rememberin' how to live American primitive

I got bricks for brains and my soul is strange
Rememberin' how to live American primitive
You are better late yeah you're worth the wait
Rememberin' how to live American primitive
I got bricks for brains and my soul is strange
Rememberin' how to live American primitive
