Jefferson St.

[Verse 1]
The lights turn down on Jefferson Street
Cop car sits in the middle
Something terrifies me
The world ain’t so simple, you see

The riddles are the same
But the answers change
And I saw bright light

[Chorus]
Why does it cut me down to size?
Why do the leaves inside me die?
We’ll learn to wait
It’s Christmas time now anyway

[Verse 2]
The ocean rolls around my skies
And I am walking inside
You are the blue water inside my eyes

[Chorus]
Why does it cut me down to size?
Why do the leaves inside me die?
We’ll learn to wait
It’s Christmas time now anyway

Na na na…

[Verse 3]
Thanksgiving time, words ain’t enough
Summertime, a kiss
I am a lonely boy with my cover soaked with rain
Rain …
[Why are you crying?]
[Why aren’t you flying?]

The lights turn down on Jefferson Street
