The Revivalists - Ride The Earth

Melting in my living room I can’t beat the heat
these women in my neighborhood are burning up the street
tank tops shorts and flip flops so much love to spare
imagine her in waist high grass with a flower in her hair

come away
you won’t find a better day
the city’s burning up my brain
you’ve been dying since your birth come on ride the earth

time passes days grow shorter the kids are back in school
I’ll keep you safe and warm as summer winds turn cool
long sleeves trees with red leaves look like they’re on fire
I’ll lay you down in a mountain bed so I can take you higher

come away
you won’t find a better day
the city’s burning up my brain
you’ve been dying since your birth so come on ride the earth

we believe there’s time to spare
we’ll be fine come what may
European woman with the storm cloud eyes
is your beauty a reality or a natural disguise
we’re sleeping here at the summit ‘cause we got no place to go
so lay your love upon me under eight inches of snow

come away
we won’t find a better day
the city’s burning up my brain
ou’ve been dying since your birth so come on ride the earth
