Lake Placid

First train across the border
Goodbye kiss, I'm getting older
Lingers all the way down to New York

Small towns and scenery
Glens Falls to Albany
Vacant seats revealed by the rising sun

But now I'm headed somewhere else
Settling dust on a shelf
Recollections from beyond

And it's not hard for me
Though unsatisfactory
Reluctantly I take you in my arms

Upstate Independence Day
Barefoot in the lake and waiting
Fireworks eclipse the light in my eyes

We went back for the holiday
Early March in the freezing rain
Didn't hit the same spot, but we tried

And now I'm cutting corners
Sleeping late and getting older
Tearing down the photos of Montreal

It's good as dead to me
Swimming pools and groceries
Staring at the paint peeling off of the wall

Well you can't win 'em all
