lyrics

Home is wine
Grows more delicious with time
And the longer you're away
The more you wished you might have stayed.

Lying in the grass with the shadows of the clouds
Planting thoughts in my mind that can never leave the ground
Arkady sighs and gently sets me down.

Dandelion dreams simmer sweetly in the sun
Spitting kisses in the wind
Holding secrets in my lungs
I could win the west if Monday never comes.

But maybe I'd just like to hold the view
Of your glow in the shine of the afternoon.

And the road through my life
Although it may wind
I find it brings me back here
Every single time
To where the sweetness of summer
Hangs on youth's untamed breath
You in red is so hard to forget
You in red is so hard to forget.

Never figured out a way to stay
Never figured out a way to stay
But even if I could
The fruit would over-ripen and the twilight be too understood.
The fall came on too soon
And every setting sun has gotta turn and face its light on the moon.

And the road through my life
Although it may wind
I find it brings me back here
Every single time
To where the sweetness of summer
Hangs on youth's untamed breath
You in red is so hard to forget
You in red is so hard to forget.
