Oakwood
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, sneak us there in the middle of the night, oh
Sit up on your roof, have some beers beneath the stars, lover
I can see you there holding my hand, girl
Looking in my eyes, oh, giving me the look, lover
(Not bright up here)
Talking 'bout the lovers that we had, oh
Bag them bones, let's forget all about the others
(Not bright up here)
Look so pretty, girl, even when you're high
It's funny, all the shit we speak when we close our eyes, baby
(Not bright up here)
Lovers soon to be lovers
Lovers soon to be others
Lovers soon to be lovers
Not what I did
Not what I did
Not what I did
Not what I did
We met on the beat, beat, only ones alive
Left here to be the only ones to live as lovers
(Not bright up here)
Tryna move slow but we're so liquored up
Rolling with the wind like a dusty old pick-up truck
Drinking on the weekend, weekday
Never get a break to say the things I wanna say, lover
(Not bright up here)
Coke binge state that I'm living in, honey
Tryna reach out for a little bit of your money
(Not bright up here)
Lovers soon to be lovers
(Like a shadow in the moonlight)
Lovers soon to be others
Lovers soon to be lovers
(Like a shadow in the moonlight)
Not what I did
Not what I did
Not what I did
Not what I did
