My Life Is At Home lyrics

At the top of the world

There is a half-year sun

The water`s all froze

And one thousand men old

On the side of the hill

There are no wanting eyes

But you`re a spectacle a spinning doll

Now the hour is fading but ours is staying

Its all syncopated to your heart`s hard heartbeat time

You may never miss a sign



At the base of your skull

I`ve got a place there still

All my clothes spread out aI was just thinking most of last Wednesday

I hope we`re together from here until Doomsday

We could be each other`s arms

Keep each other free from harm

Because when it`s all stripped to the bone

My life is at home



Spring cleaning`s coming as we lose the cold weather

Put away your long johns and all your thick sweaters

We`ll cut off all our winter hair

Sit out on the lawn chairs

As the sun forgets that we`re here

We forget our career



All the lukewarm weeks at sixty degrees

We`re hoping it`s humid show our summer knees

Once in a lifetime once in a while the sun will shine on me

Thursday I`m leaving skip town I`m running

It`s cars and new faces and jokes that aren`t funny

But we laugh at them anyway

I`d do anything just to kill the day

No matter how far that I go I`m not so far away

All the lukewarm weeks at sixty degrees

We`re hoping it`s humid show our summer knees

Once in a lifetime once in a while the sun will shine on me

All the humid nights parked under streetlights

My baby`s riding shotgun in her knee high tights

She looks like heaven I feel like the devil

In my Sunday whites



As I slowly better my craft

I`m still a ghost of my better half

Cos once in awhile the sun shines on me

In a permanent row



Now the hour is fading but ours is staying

It`s all syncopated to your hearts hard heartbeat time

We will never not get together

We will never not get too old

The water`s all frozen one



And I`ve got a place there still

And we will not get too old
