Holly Drive

There’s a certain time of day when I go for a walk in the sunlight
All the cracks and the crevices are holding in the darkness so tight
Heavy heart, I’ll protect you
Weathered soul, I won’t neglect you
'Cause there’s a sunny disposition on the outside, on the outside
But it’s a shady place I live in on the inside, on the inside
Fingers and bones and cobwebs and holes in the carpet
Feel the beat of my shoes on the street until I make it back home
People often say I’m a lot like the man from Paris, Texas
But here I am on Holly Drive with hummingbirds and sunny skies, protected
Heavy heart, I’ll protect you
Weathered soul, I won’t neglect you
'Cause there’s a sunny disposition on the outside, on the outside
But it’s a shady place I live in on the inside, on the inside
Fingers and bones and cobwebs and holes in the carpet
Feel the beat of my shoes on the street until I make it back home
Little old house in the middle of the street
I saw you open the gate and I saw you leave
Living in a storybook neighbourhood
Complicated, misunderstood
There’s a sunny disposition on the outside, on the outside
But it’s a shady place I live in on the inside, on the inside
Fingers and bones and cobwebs and holes in the carpet
Feel the beat of my shoes on the street until I make it back home
