Tin Palace

Tasha waits by the river
For her daily free sardine
My friend Wendy's such a giver
And I'm caught up in her dream

Now a neon green iguana
Is trapped on a rusted leaf
And as she tries to free her
I laugh with disbelief

They say time stops at the Tin Palace
But there's no such thing as time
When you're spilling all your secrets
Watching her feed the egrets
And you feel the world unwind

The raindrops on the rooftop
Make such a soothing sound
They wake me from my short nap
And I take a look around

Guanyin's staring at me
She's got such a peaceful smile
All of Wendy's crazy colors
Bring out my inner child

They say time stops at the Tin Palace
But there's no such thing as time
When you're dancing in the kitchen
To a soulful French musician
And feeling mighty fine

Oooohhh
Oooohhh

We stay up telling stories
'Bout how we got to here
And all the special people
That we still hold so dear

That rain just keeps on coming
The river's getting high
I curl up in my bed sheets
Grateful to be dry

They say time stops at the Tin Palace
But there's no such thing as time
And I am grateful for the freedom
To not need a reason
And slow the spinning of my mind

I'm grateful for the freedom
To not need a reason
And slow the spinning of my mind

Oooohhh
Oooohhh
Oooohhh
Oooohhh
