Make Peace with Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They say if I were in Texas with the big blue sky I'd wanna be right where I am stuck tonight And I know they could be right But I still wanna give it a big blue try Did my mother those same words? Or did they drill contempt into her? Or is my rolling so cursed? If I was still what she prefer [Pre-Chorus] Straighten up, button up, girl Keep it down, keep him around, girl [Chorus] I wonder if the sea mourns what could have been? Does she toss and turn in her sleep? I wonder if her tides feel the way I do tonight Or have they made peace with time? Wish I could make peace with time [Verse 2] What's a painter without paint And what's he to do when there's no one to blame And what the hell is a writer without a page I've been feelin' a little like that these days I've been feelin' a little like that these days [Pre-Chorus] Straighten up, button up, girl Keep it down, keep him around, girl [Chorus] I wonder if the sea mourns what could have been? Does she toss and turn in her sleep? I wonder if her tides feel the way I do tonight Or have they made peace with time? Wish I could make peace with time Wish I could make peace with time [Outro] Straighten up, button up, girl
