The Tisburys - Wax Nostalgic lyrics

Artist: The Tisburys

album: Wax Nostalgic (Deluxe Edition)


You long for the days when you could still run
Through the woods and the valleys of the kingdom you won
Now you're getting old and the crown has been passed
To the kids getting high on cellophane gas
A city that's been shaken and coddled around
To the point that its fallen and become just a town
You still have some friends there, and they're doing fine
Now they're getting married while you're drawing lines
I still hear you laughing and cry when it rains
I can still hear you calling, calling out my name
The moon is still waxing but I think it wanes
But life it moves on, it moves on just the same
I saw her on high street when I went to school
We went to the book barn which I thought was cool
The longer I sit here, the longer it takes
To realize she had her foot on the brakes
You never quite know what happens in the West
The ships pull to shore and conquer the rest
The beacons, they beckon the slow rising tide
I still wish you were here, back by my side
I still hear you laughing and cry when it rains
I can still hear you calling, calling out my name
The moon is still waxing but I think it wanes
But life it moves on, it moves on just the same
Sometimes death hits you in ways you don't expect
Like your mother's older brother or your father's best friend
I still hear the geese calling, I can hear the ocean roar
I won't leave you hanging, won't walk out that door
Move to a new city to start a new life
When all of your troubles, they cut like a knife
Sometimes you long for the days when you could
Just hang around and love when you should
I still hear you laughing and cry when it rains
I can still hear you calling, calling out my name
The moon is still waxing but I think it wanes
But life it moves on
Life it moves on
Life it moves on
It moves on just the same
