Cicada Choir

I love you walking around like you lived in here before

There's rags in the kitchen, there's stains on the floor

And the checkered tile and old air

Seem to fill this house just right so

Let down your hair and pull up the blinds

That dog now he wants out while I'm pulling you in

Let's sing a song or two while the flag floats in the wind

Let's walk down to the airfield and let's start the morning right

And if you're lucky we'll catch the sunrise and stay here till we die

This town's been good to us through both the rain and shine

And we may not call it home but I still can call you mine

That's all you need love when you want some peace of mind

It's just you and me and the dog and the singing cicada choir

Let your voice fall all down into the floor

'Cause the ones we always fear can't hear us anymore

And when you start to speak, talk about joy, talk about hurt

'Cause the quiet in my ears is desperate for your words

This town's been good to us through both the rain and shine

And we may not call it home but I still can call you mine

That's all you need love when you want some peace of mind

It's just you and me and the dog and the singing cicada choir

This town's been good to us through both the rain and shine

And we may not call it home but I still can call you mine

That's all you need love when you want some peace of mind

It's just you and me and the dog and the singing cicada choir
