Rebecca Turner - Water Shoes Lyrics

I don't know how to be how you are, be so sweet, like you are; wasn't born on your star
But you make me want to take things apart, to rewind this old heart
At least as far as yesterday, when we swam in the river
The rocks were smooth; not the greatest of weather
I borrowed your shoes, and my happiness hovered on the surface of the water

The place was gray, wasn't sure on that day If I was gonna stay, and I'm still not so sure
But you stepped in, threw some color around, made a home of this town
There were sounds coming down
Like yesterday, when we stood on the sidewalk, our smiles so big
We could step right inside them
The very next day, we might have been crying, but at the time, I forgot to

I don't know what it is that I want
Maybe peace, maybe just not to always be wanting what it is that it seems that you have?
Yes, I know you get sad. But your heart seems to live outside of itself, in a place mostly sunny We're walking through mud, and you think that I'm funny
And time tries to stop
Yes, I know that I'm quiet, trying hard to be good like you

Blueberry summer and we don't get old
December lights and we don't get cold
We spring together with our hearts on sleeves
Hope falls around us like some maple leaves
