Midland

Lyrics

Come and stay with me as long as you like I live outside of town where the straight highway curves Three years I lived next door to the airport So nothing you can say to me can get on my nerves Stay till you feel your legs underneath you again I've got room in my house for you I've got a Kenmore single-room window unit air conditioner It cools down the place in the full heat of day A family of possums have made their home underneath the front steps They are majestic in their own beady-eyed homely way Stay till you can breathe like normal people do I've got room in my house for you They tore down the airport in 1981 This is where I came when I ran out of places to run Come, come Come and stay with me out here away from things Come and stay with me where the sky's real clear I live way out where no one believes anybody could live Sky's purple from six in the evening till midnight out here Stay till the world goes down in flames I've got room, room in my house for you
