Basement Tapes
So we get
Loaded in the van and drive through the suburbs
And we set
Out on Highway 35 to discover
What's the plan?
Sliding through the dark in all kinds of weather
Where's the map?
One of us is barely holding it together
I've still got all your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Saying those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the big star dream
Life with each other
Yeah!
So we tool
Down the Kansas City they sleep on a sofa
And we're cool
Temporarily 'cause we're from Minnesota
Later on
Walking in the dark with a sweet babysitter
On the lawn
Talking while inside, you made out with her sister
I've still got all your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Saying those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the big star dream
Life with each other
Summer diamonds rushing by us
Wake me up when we get there
I'm still cranking your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Sing those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the big star dream
Life with each other
Yeah!
Yeah!
Loaded in the van and drive through the suburbs
And we set
Out on Highway 35 to discover
What's the plan?
Sliding through the dark in all kinds of weather
Where's the map?
One of us is barely holding it together
I've still got all your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Saying those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the big star dream
Life with each other
Yeah!
So we tool
Down the Kansas City they sleep on a sofa
And we're cool
Temporarily 'cause we're from Minnesota
Later on
Walking in the dark with a sweet babysitter

I've still got all your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Saying those things that you just don't say

Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the big star dream
Life with each other
Summer diamonds rushing by us
Wake me up when we get there
I'm still cranking your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Sing those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the big star dream
Life with each other
Yeah!
Yeah!
