Oaks - The Hold Steady[00:00:01]
There were days from last week[00:00:19]
I couldn't quite complete[00:00:22]
Skipped ahead to the next afternoon[00:00:25]
Sweat through the sheets[00:00:32]
Slept in my shoes[00:00:35]
Hung around with the House of Balloons[00:00:38]
Keep the speed steady[00:00:48]
Hold the wheel straight[00:00:51]
We scratch and we scrape[00:00:54]
We're scared then we're brave[00:00:57]
The kids on the corner making eyes at the cars[00:01:01]
If you want to saved all it takes is a wave[00:01:07]
There were kids at the car wash[00:01:26]
That said they could get it[00:01:30]
Gave them half but they never came back[00:01:32]
Drove by so slowly[00:01:39]
It felt like we're floating[00:01:42]
An inflatable raft[00:01:45]
Our bodies are stoplights[00:01:52]
Our minds are the streets[00:01:54]
We scratch and we scrape[00:01:58]
We're scared then we're brave[00:02:01]
The kids on the corner making eyes at the cars[00:02:04]
If you want to saved all it takes is a wave[00:02:10]
Sarah I still think that you are so beautiful[00:02:43]
I'm sorry that you don't feel the same way as me[00:02:49]
We spent so much time in this town driving slowly[00:02:55]
We spent so much money on things that didn't stay[00:03:01]
So call for a taxi. Slide into the backseat[00:03:08]
It rolls like a glass bottomed boat[00:03:14]
The kids on the corner when they reach in the window[00:03:21]
Their arms look like limbs from an oak[00:03:27]
Keep the speed steady. Hold the wheel straight[00:03:34]
I swear I feel each little sway[00:03:40]
Our minds are the windows[00:03:46]
Our bodies are screens[00:03:49]
We scratch[00:03:52]
We scrape[00:03:55]
And we dream[00:03:57]
We dream of the limbs of the trees[00:04:04]
We dream of the views from the boats[00:04:11]
Of mountains all covered in oaks[00:04:18]
And we hope[00:04:26]
As we hang from the limbs of the trees[00:04:31]
We cling to the rails of the boats[00:04:38]
The mountains all covered in oaks[00:04:44]
And we dream[00:04:53]
We dream of the limbs of the trees[00:04:57]
We dream of the views from the boats[00:05:04]
Of mountains all covered in oaks[00:05:11]
And we hope[00:05:20]
As we hang from the limbs of the trees[00:05:24]
We cling to the rails on the boats[00:05:31]
The trees as they turn into smoke[00:05:37]
The trees they turn slowly to smoke[00:05:44]
