Lyrics

The Christmas lights have all expired And last year's tree is in the fire I'll spent the summer in Omaha With no reason at all All those years spent on a road Descending notes don't mean much anymore A compass no longer shows You, the true North Everybody needs a reason to wake up in love Everybody needs a reason to wake up in love Smoke and gin it's all pretend That I don't know there's something killing me As my friends start their families I should be happy but I'm grieving I call you lost but the truth is I don't know my own way anymore I see the ones with ambition one And it's like losing a hundred wars But I'm too selfish and mean To give up on the dream But what is the dream? You tell me You tell me It's a disappearing season my time has come I'm still looking for a reason to wake up in love The Christmas lights have all expired And last year's tree is in the fire The last summer in Omaha With no reason at all
