lyrics

Last night I dreamed that we were together and alright
On Lake Michigan in a place I used to know well
I was laughing at boys like I knew what the hell I was doing
I felt so alive
And that was just fun, you were the son, and I was the daughter
Take off your clothes, lie on your back and stare at the water

Well, it came time to go back inside and put on a record
And on came the most beautiful song in the world
Well, at least it seemed right for just that one moment in time
Honey you felt it, too

And that was just fun, you were the son, I was the daughter
Take off your clothes, lie on your back and stare at the water
At the water…

Why do I feel like I’m losing you over again?
Why do I feel like I’m losing my best friend again?

Because everything good has to come to an end
So I’ve been told
The comfort of night will be gone in the day
And the harsh light of morning will spoil your most perfect moment
When you felt so real

Yeah, that was just fun, you were the son, and I was the daughter
Oh, take off your clothes

That was just fun, you were the son, and I was the daughter
Take off your clothes, lie on your back, honey, I’ll be the water
I’ll be water I'll be water I'll be water I'll be water I'll be water

There's only one track on this whole album I don't adore. The other nine would be my favorite track on almost any other album they stumbled into. "Years" is like the perfect Best Of album for a band that's been steadily putting out records for decades. 'Caroline Reese and the Drifting Fifth' level stuff here. burrito741
