Summer Underground Teach Me How To Move
Long summer hair with the windows down
We were bathing in the water of the beauty we had found
She was a queen but I was a clown
Everything ended like a bullet to a crown
I found a fountain in the hills of New York
And I washed my hands of the blood that we poured
I found a lover who was hiding in the sand
She took me by the arm yeah she took me by the hand
And she took me down to where the young souls war
Behind the parking lot of the pizza store
And I held her to my heart and I told her what I thought
Baby, I know you got it
So come on up, my darling
I've been waiting for you here
A little ray of sunlight will make our scratches disappear
If you wanna dance, I can bring a pair of shoes
Wrap me in your arms and teach me how to move
Well, me and my baby we been on the run ever since
Searching for paradise in folded up tents
She says that I don't like talking in the future tense
But my mind's always filling up with plans
But lately I've noticed a distance
A distance between you and me
I'm not sure how wide it really is
But I'm fearing, I'm fearing
Now the spring is upon us
and our backs are to the state
These chains will untangle us in strange ways
Everybody's leaving for some foreign coast
But me and my baby we gonna take it slow
So come on up, my darling
I've been waiting for you here
A little ray of sunlight will make our scratches disappear
I know a place where all the lonely pilgrims go
I know you're scared but if we don't try you'll never know
Pack the car in the middle of the night
Leave the apartment for the last time
Drive down state to where the empire lies
Drive across that river into the dark, into the fire
Well after tonight our bodies will be free
Nothing left behind us but what we choose to see
And I can feel it running like a current underneath
I don't know much but I know one thing:
Happiness and good times are coming
