What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Our friends on the front porch, telling jokes
2
And they swing swiftly towards happier times
3
Expending lines and finding more energy for the effort
4
And getting distance from that front porch spotlight
5
But us, we found peace in shadows
6
Long enough to see the monsters rise
7
Candy's got some space to fill in her daydreams
8
Living high on yesterday's lie
9
Talking to me about some 0% interest
10
And how she got a better deal than the next guy
11
And the way the lightning shocked us
12
When we were lost
13
And looking down that long Missouri highway
14
Your hair was longer then and now I remember
15
Oh, the roads unencumbered by cats
16
They're burning like wet matches
17
Through my miracle mile mind
18
You left your thumbprint inside me
19
Now for months it seems
20
But mine only brushes your soft surface
21
And somehow it leaves me listless
22
My tongue curls under my lips, oh yes
23
So I can't speak to tell you of the months before I met you
24
And the way the truth, it locked us
25
Right about the time after the lightning shocked us
26
When we were young and missing
27
Round that small New England byway
28
Our lives they were sheltered then and I now I remember
29
Well it's not even being about that anymore
30
I gotta get you down
31
Those tiny fragments of perfection
32
They please me in a time unchanged
33
When it's not the same beginning
34
Or along awaited end
35
If I knew all the words
36
I would write myself out of here
37
If I was all the colors
38
I would paint you pretty in gold in a picture
39
So I'm told, little sister
40
So now I'm sold, little sister
41
Why don't you tell me about
42
The sunsets in Sweden
43
And the laws of Eden
44
And how you were the Rock of Gibraltar
45
And how they called you Foxy
46
Well that's another whole box of Pandora's
47
That's another whole box of them ties
48
Slide your foot off the gas
49
Before we crash right back into the median
50
It separates our house from the middle of the street
51
Talking about our house is on the front porch
52
Telling jokes and they swing swiftly towards happier times
53
Expending lines and finding more energy for the effort
54
And getting distance from that front porch spotlight
55
But us we found peace in shadows
56
Long enough to see a monster die
57
We all need to find a little space in our daydreams
58
Long enough and just so long
59
Long enough, just as long, just so long
60
As it's long enough, is it long enough?
61
Is it long enough for me? Long enough for me to chew on
62
If it isn't, if it isn't, if it ain't, if it don't, if it can't then it won't
63
And that's just the way that it goes
