about
This is a song about a car I lost in the winter of 2011, due to black ice, a telephone pole and a bit of momentum.
lyrics
Slow down
Speed things up
Here it comes
What have you done?
The wind's blowing west
Throw caution and hope for the best
Cause you'll never be ready
If ready's still waiting for it
You can try to make your plans
Hold on tight with your hands
But if you don't believe in change
You will never understand
A deep red like the sun
As it's pulled over the sea
Just like you were
Pulled away from me
But the summer came and went
And all that was left
Were memories
Of what we used to be
You can try to make your plans
Hold on tight with your hands
But if you don't believe in change
You will never understand
You can try to make your plans
Hold on tight with your hands
You say you don't believe in change
You will never understand
Yeah you can try to hold all the sand!
Keep time in the palm of your hand
But if the boat's not built to leave land!
