lirik lagu barely 23 – the lightning year
the summers gone, but i’m sinking sierra with the beach boys on
down on the crooked highway, people are storing up their years for another day
but at the end of the isle is a boy
still young enough to know where its happening
grinning at the back of the chair
his mind inebriated with the wonders of peter pan
and though i hide my inner child away
with every belt its getting harder not to let him stay
but in the mean time – we’re due at 19.59
i’m falling asleep on the sill
i’ll dream i’m a star for an hour until i
feel this baby glide
then touch down in the neon lights
it all seemed k!ller to me
i was barely 23
step off to meet her
she’s looking as good as all the pictures implied
theres something stirring beneath my fly
i shouldn’t care if anyone stares, s’only natural
and even when i am so tired
nothing k!lls the urge to pretend that you’re not high
or wide-eyed – d-mn my pride
took a while before i learned
its ok to show emotion
and though i hide my tender heart away
when we kissed it missed a beat, oh god what if i stop breathing
but in the meantime – we’re taking exit 79
her gaze is fixed to the wheel
is she dreaming of the way it’ll make her feel when
east and west collide?
until we pull up into the drive
it all seemed k!ller to me
we were barely 23
ooh its miracle on earth
that i found her
that she found me too
oh what a story to tell the grandchildren!
we covered miles and miles all over the world
weathered heart ache, mistakes, difficult spells
with every year in the can, we stuck to the plan
i said “i love you till i die, won’t you let me be your man?”
i bought a house and a ring, and a table for two
i gained a father, sister, mother when she said “yes i do”
and though the odds were stacked higher than the cn tower
somehow we came above it all…
