The shape you take when you lay like that Reminds me of a love I've never had If loving's wrong, what's a boy to do? I ain't scared of death, I'm scared of losing you You ain't out of my league, you're out of this planet But dammit if you ain't drilled into my skull Take a trip uptown to clear you out of my mind You're like sandpaper, the more I try, you bind Winter was a drag and spring was a friend I'll love you till the summer comes back again They've been tryin' to smooth me out For twenty-seven seasons now For twenty-seven seasons now When I close my eyes, I think of times I could smell and hear, that northern thunder But every pine has its time To outgrow the rings of days a-younger I'll be still at the cutting mill Makin' me a roof that you can hide under Take a trip uptown to clear you out of my mind You're like sandpaper, the more I try, you bind Winter was a drag and spring was a friend I'll love you till the summer comes back again They've been tryin' to smooth me out For twenty-seven seasons now For twenty-seven seasons Take a trip uptown to clear you out of my mind You're like sandpaper, the more I try, you bind Winter was a drag but spring was a friend I'll love you till the summer comes back again And they've been tryin' to smooth me out For twenty-seven seasons now For twenty-seven seasons now For twenty-seven seasons now For twenty-seven seasons now
