The Earth and Amy Lou

With the earth I say, it’s the same old day.
It’s just another reason to come back home to you.
Sweet Amy Lou, I pray to God
If it’s the same ol’ dance and same ol’ songs with you, with you.
But if it’s all the same, if it’s all the same, I’m glad I got to keep you.
The things I say, to make you smile, it’s what let’s me know I love you so, it’s true, I love you.
Sweet Amy Lou, I’d say it’s you, if the Earth was boiling right on through it’s core, just to keep you around.
But if it’s all the same, if it’s all the same, I’d say I love you. And if I never saw you, and if I never saw a face so true, well I’d be so blue. And if I never saw you, and if I never saw you, and if I never saw a face so true, well I’d be so blue. If I were to buy you something,
I’d swear it’d be your wedding ring
And if I never saw you, and if I never saw a face so true, well I’d be so blue. And if I were to buy you something, I swear it’d be your wedding ring.

Just in case, you were wondering,
How I’ve been, oh how I’ve been,
It’s time I told you I missed you and how it used to be,
Oh how things used to be it’s been pretty rough,
Lost both my love and the lung.
The times I think of a way I’m doin’ fine, I’m not doin’ fine.
I’m filled with regret, I delightfully try not to think you, not to think of you more. Been quite prepared to just spill my guts just to be with you.
I long for you. I berate the man I used to be, remember this day, as the day I wake up feeling new to you.
I still think you do. I lost both my lungs trying to sing my way out to get through to you, tell me why oh why I try to just be with you.
She said I’m through.
Oh she’s through.

I followed the way out to scratch from the surface to your floors.
I am the ghost you've been lookin' for.
I am yours.
I am the picture worth a thousand words.
I stream out to say out in a moan,
"I see the reason you call this home."
I am GROWN.
I am the reason to call his phone.
I am GROWN.
I am the reason you feel alone.
I am grown.

In just a minute I'll comprehend all the men who lost faith in the time they spend.
It's just a little bit different when you see it in the long run.
Singing for the ones who wed, they'll be singing holding hands until the day they're dead.
It makes me feel more confident when I see it in the long run and not for the end.
I see little bit of all the people gone, but that's what matters in the end is all the little things like all the happiness.
Enjoy your love. Do whatever makes you happy. It's what matters.
All of this is just another point to call her beloved.
All of this is just another point to call her your own.
All the men with less ignorance with the women holding hands, holding up their heads.
It's just a little irritating when all the kids in this town act like they're all dead.
It makes me feel more confident when I see it in the long run and not for the end.
I see a little bit of all the people gone, but that's what matters in the end, is all the little thing like all the happiness.
I'll see it from the middle.
Enjoy your love. Do what ever makes you happy. It's what matters.
All of this is just another point to call her beloved.
All of this is just another point to call her your own.
Hold each other up to the point of the after.
Stay to hold them close, stay to hold them forever.
Call her your own.

Stutter to find a way out of this god forsaken conversation.
Stumble to find my place on the floor.
I could find truth. I could hear truth in this floor.
I could find truth. I could taste it where it wasn't before.
You can keep on talking I'm not listening anymore.
I can follow the tracks that march under the door.
I would find you. I will find you. I'm the man that you vowed for.
I can hide truth. I will find you on the man that you longed for.

I see you show up with the time to spare.
I hope to see you walk up just to talk to me.
It never happens, you see.
Give it up to the boy of wonder, who can tie you up with ribbons of awkward words and phrases to make it all feel so much worse!
I see you at the top of the endless stairs.
You are the only thing that's shining brighter than the moon in the air.
I'll try my hardest not to stare.
Give it up for the boy of despair! He'll try to cover up all the sadness with the smile he wears!
It's not his fault he's there.

Two for two, you've got it under control.
You're making choices, yeah you're getting old
Trust me, kid, let it go.
You've got your pains, you've got your meds,
They always wonder why you look so mad, you're a
Moxie kid, yeah... Let it out.
Tell your parents, use the telephone
Ask 'em why you gotta come back home
Moxie kid, you gotta let it go.
Moxie kid... Come Home.
The reason why is cause it all looks the same.
You're callin' shots, you got no one to blame.
You're a Toxic kid, yeah... Straighten your frame.
See there's more to life than just getting angry.
See there's more to life than just being sad.
I'll live my life and try my best to make it work.
Even if it just gets so much worse.
You've done and lost it, kid, c'mon. Who's to blame?
Who's inside?
It's who's inside.

Well, pack your bags.
You're on the move.
It's another night I'm waiting up for you.
'Cause you told me to.
I always do what you tell me to.
See, look at you in your pretty dress.
You always try so hard just to impress.
It's just what you do.
Just look at you.
You, I only see you in my dreams.
