lyrics
She came to visit one pretty day in summertime
Held my hand and kissed me in the baggage line
We were together in the heat
A small adventure close to home
Our bodies touched, we grew apart and in the end I was alone
I'm alive, telling you why
Making it alright baby
Why don't you marry me
We'll run away
We could be happy there
In some other place
No matter what we do, we can't go back to where we started from
Though it might be nice if I could change my mind and turn the time back some
You painted pictures for me then and left them in the sun
I sang you songs to make you cry but you laughed at me when I was done
Held my hand and kissed me in the baggage line
We were together in the heat
A small adventure close to home
Our bodies touched, we grew apart and in the end I was alone
I'm alive, telling you why
Making it alright baby
Why don't you marry me
We'll run away
We could be happy there
In some other place
No matter what we do, we can't go back to where we started from
Though it might be nice if I could change my mind and turn the time back some
You painted pictures for me then and left them in the sun
I sang you songs to make you cry but you laughed at me when I was done

Like an abandoned child raised by hippies, Poets and Peasants is the product of the tender love of a bunch of poor people with instruments. Comprised of nine multi-instrumentalists and choral singers sown in the Midwestern soil, the group's singable, anthem-like choruses combine with sophisticated arrangements to create a sound that both challenges and inspires. ... more
