Hayden Casey Tonight
I left the house at just past midnight, the neighborhood was asleep
Thought about the distant future and it got hard to breathe
I couldn't stop thinking about Arthur Cave and how it must feel to fly
The rain brought air like California, hot as mid-July
Maybe I'll give you something I can never get back
And write it off as a transaction and leave it at that
Maybe I'll tell you something I can never take back
And write it off as foolish when you're out of my grasp
I'll never have the jaw of a lead guitarist but someday I'll reconcile
With all these facets of dissatisfaction that sit behind my smile
I'm breathing deep and burning lavender but nothing calms my nerves
Back and forth from bright to dark, impatient for your words
Maybe I'll give you something I can never get back
And write it off as a transaction and leave it at that
Maybe I'll tell you something I can never take back
And write it off as foolish when you're out of my grasp
Don't let me get too far ahead of myself
Caught up in the moment, deep in my head
Maybe I'll give you something I can never get back
And write it off as a transaction and leave it at that
Maybe I'll tell you something I can never take back
And write it off as foolish when you're out of my grasp
