Hold My Jacket

Hold my jacket
Everything I’ll miss about this life is in the details
And I just wanna take it all in tonight
I spent so much time getting here

These feelings are a vicious cycle
I try to reach you and you hurt me
So I start singing on the first bar
And I push you away

You're gonna be inside a carwash
When you finally wake up
There won’t be critters on the windshield
But you suspect there had been some
If it was only one, I am guilty
If only one

Hold my jacket
Everything you’ll miss about this life is in the details I swear
I think you should take it all in tonight
We spent so much time wondering

These feelings are inconsequential, I know
I try to reach you and I’m thirsty
So I start singing on the third bar, oh
And I cannot make you stay

I’m gonna be in California
(Burning La Cienega
Part of the choir
Making California dry)
Guess you’ll be somewhere too
There won’t be no ocean where you’re going
But you’ll remember something blue
And I’ll remember you
Can you hear me?
I’ll remember you

I was just warming up
I was just warming up
I was just warming up
For somebody else’s touch
I was never in the way
Just another person to lay
Thing about leaving town
You might as well fool around
Couldn’t ever get you to stay
And I could never get away
