We sit and stare 'til it gets old   The summer heat drops to a cold breeze   My bare feet ? in the grass   Content to stay here and watch time lapse      Dandelion growing in the cracks   My eyes fix just a past   The horizon where space and god all laugh   And it all shrinks to a view and then falls flat      Happy are we with them gospel songs   And a quiet place where we can watch the streetlights turn on   An empty house filled up with a select few   And some stars      Now I'm hopin' that my car will start   Prolonged stars are not in the cards tonight   Perfect timing and a favourite window   And sleep right up ahead      Happy are we with them gospel songs   And a quiet place where we can watch the streetlights turn on   An empty house filled up with a select few   And some stars
