Savannah

Savannah, you look so pretty today

I gotta go, though, and be on my way

But I'll be back, honey, that's a fact

With a laugh on my face and a guitar on my back

I make friends almost every single day

We talk a lot, man, 'cause there's a lot to say

But sometimes, I let my silence become the conversation

And when there's nothing better

We talk about the weather outside (Ah)

But I know it seems like screaming

But, man, I'm only dreaming in time (Ah, ah)

Savannah, has it been so long?

But I'm back, babe, with a brand new song

And a stage, a couple dozen who've paid

Most have gone, but you stayed, you stayed

And when there's nothing better

We'd sit and watch the weather outside (Ah)

And I know it seems like screaming

But, man, I'm only dreaming in time (Ah, ah)

We've come a long, long way, man

I never thought you'd make it out alive

If I had my guess, when we were younger

You'd be dead by now

But here we are now

Just two faces in the crowd now

Now, now

I used to practice what I'd have to say at your funeral

And have dreams in which you die

And maybe you did, but either way, you're an angel now

And after so long, you're familial, like blood

And the conversation hangs between us

And when we fall silent, the air fills up with love

Oh, when there's nothing better

Talk about the weather outside
