Florida

The end isn't quite what you wanted
Ghosts from the past leave you haunted
The hills and the pines sing of easier times
That were never and won't come again
So you pack up and ride towards the ocean
Lost but in love with the motion
The stones turn to sand, the trees twist in the wind
And the waters forget all your sins

Race cross the border like maybe in Florida
You're broke but you'll be born again
As the waves roll and crash, your eyes turn to look back
Cause you can't forget all that's been

You been leaving so long you've forgotten
All the reasons you had when you started
Months short on the rent since your last lover split
And you sold most everything
Now there's a box full of plates in the back seat
Shake and rattle like bones in the valley
At a panhandle rest stop, they soar cross the blacktop
And burst like a diver into the sea

Race cross the border like maybe in Florida
You're broke but you'll be born again
As the waves roll and crash, your eyes turn to look back
Cause you can't forget all that's been

With sand in your hair
And salt on your skin
Your lips form a prayer
The tide comes in

Race cross the border like maybe in Florida
You're broke but you'll be born again
As the waves roll and crash, your eyes turn to look back
Cause you can't forget all that's been
