Hat On, Drinking Wine - Mr. Jefferson lyrics

rate me

The sun was slowly sinking down to the bottom of the sea

Mr. Jefferson was sleeping, somewhere behind these steps and me

Off in a distant distance, the summers come to haunt again,

Someone's sunset had faded and forgotten what it meant

Someone's sunset had faded in front of me,

Mr Jefferson said, She's still a part of me

Just over the edge there's a light shining somewhere

But you had gone, just as I had gotten there

Mr. Jefferson said, this is not the way to spend a day

Watching sunsets slowly fading away

Maybe we can take tomorrow and turn it into yesterday

Fallen footsteps on the floor

Told me that you did not care anymore

So I looked back to sea the sky, the blue and the green

And I wondered what it all means

This sun never seems to set

It dances upon the horizon like the day that we first met

I walked by a swing yesterday and remembered when I pushed you to the sky

And how you used to shine, but baby so did I

I look back and I see a little boy that did not know

What the hell it was behind those shadows

Mr. Jefferson said, stars shoot now and then

He catches me falling towards her again

Mr. Jefferson said, this is not the way to spend a day

Watching sunsets slowly fading away

Maybe we can take tomorrow and turn it into yesterday

There are things about me that nobody knows

They're the kinds of things that keep me, me

I guess I loved you more then anything

It's wrong to believe in those kinds of things

Mr. Jefferson said, this is not the way to spend a day

Watching sunsets slowly fading away

Maybe we can take tomorrow and turn it into yesterday
