lyrics

Jason

Jason
we’ve almost come full circle
back home
but we’ve still got a lot of money left
we’ve been saving
all year
oh, how far do you think we can get out and still make it
back to here?

This trip has taught me
to appreciate
the small rewards
and I’ve learned things
about myself
that I’m easily pleased
with the little things
with just two chords

That diner in West Virginia
the look of the hills
the doo wop they played out of Richmond
and it gave me the chills

Well you know who those trees
remind me of
don’t you, friend?
And the more that they are
piling up
the more I don’t think I’m ever going to
see her again
but I’m going to see a lot of trees

I’ve been known to get myself
into good things
Jason, you’ve watched me
turn away
oh, time and time again
the branches stretch into
my past

I live in my dreams
and I need to wake up
I live in my dreams and
I’m in need of your wisdom to
wake me up

Jason, we’ve lived like
two care-free rats
this past month
I’m stunned we never fell ill
I am shocked that we were never
pulled over
well, it’s not like our youth
when you would ask me for the truth and
I would lie
I’ve been trying to write a song for
a dear friend of mine but I am scared
I’ll cry

He’s that kind, to me
he’s that kind
