busman’s holiday – make believe lyrics
[verse 1: lew]
in the summer
i watched tv with
my dad’s new wife
i rode around
on my mountain bike
like
a big backyard
and the fallen tree;
our soda’s cold
and the summer’s free
[bridge: lew and addie, harmony]
time is torn into a memory:
some things we lose
some things we keep
[verse 2: lew]
underwater
open my eyes to find
my sister’s leg
i pinched her thigh
and she kicked my face:
a broken nose
and a shining sea
i make a funny noise
when i try to breathe
[bridge: lew and addie, harmony]
time is torn into a memory:
some things we lose
some things we keep
[chorus: lew and addie, harmony]
i see it rolling with the clouds at night
my mom drove fast to make it home by night
she said, “it’s time to go to bed,”
and i turned around and said
“all my love, suzy greer.”
[verse 3: lew]
auntie carla
came down sunday
borrowed the tv guide
like spaghetti night
and spaghetti fright
a big back yard
and the fallen tree
you change your clothes
for the winter freeze
[bridge: lew and addie, harmony]
time is torn into a memory:
some things we lose
some things we keep
[chorus: lew and addie, harmony]
i see it rolling with the clouds at night
my mom drove fast to make it home by night
she said, “it’s time to go to bed,”
and i turned around and said
“all my love, suzy greer.”
[coda: lew]
the sun is golden, and my eyes are closed:
just mom and i, to hear the mountain talk
now the days have all moved on
and all that’s left’s a song
that i’ve made to share
