Moon time working

and wet grass walking

smiling

and farther go looking

stardust

with the sunburnt arms

we ain’t too far from the highway

So I’ll hideaway

And breathe real deeply

I’m walking around and just plain trying

Someone who’s thinking they were right here before

but I’m not there

and it’s been hard before

I hope you take me

and I’ll be real serious

decide to put a little skin in the game

and that’ll be the same

and you ain’t the same

and grandma ain’t been the same

but I could still choose to smile
