Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up, I'm in the in-between, honey
One foot out, I know the weight is coming
Because I left it by the bed last night
Open my eyes and I stare and pray for light
Dream far away
Always one foot out when you say goodbye to the one that you love
One dream away from the ones above
That's such a rhythm in my life these days
So I hold on tight, and I learn to behave
[PreChorus]
Because I lied to you, I lied to you
I lied to your face in the summer
Your face in the summer
You had long hair, then
You had long hair, then
I'm coming back from the dead
[Chorus]
I'm singing out back
Good morning to the cops
Good morning to my upstairs neighbor
And to the kids at forty-two
Anyone who lent me a favor
I wish that I could stop
Now I wish that I could live a little safer
I'm watching all of the nights go blue
Somebody lend me a favor soon
Dream far away
[Verse 2]
Woke up in the corner store, someone saying my name
Everybody moving around, acting like nothing had changed
But something had changed in me
Yeah, she touched me
Yeah, she touched me, said, "I know you're not to blame"
Dream far away
What a way to live under
What a lie that's been covered
I'm talking 'bout rolling thunder
I know I left you on the street last night
So I'm holding on, grabbing at a light
[PreChorus]
How come I lied to you? I lied to you
I lied to your face in the summer
Your face in the summer
I had my hair short then
I had my hair short then
I'm coming back from the dead
[Chorus]
I'm singing out back
Good morning to the cops
Good morning to my upstairs neighbor
And to the kids at forty-two
Anyone who lent me a favor
I wish that I could stop
Now I wish that I could live a little safer
I'm watching all of the nights go blue
Somebody lend me a favor soon
Dream far away
[Outro]
I know it's always been you
You just gotta get home soon
I'm coming for you
It's always been you
You just gotta get home soon, ooh-ooh
