I am purple you are red
You stole my heart and swarmed my head
You could have me any time of day
Since the tide's been rollin' in
and the hair's been growing on my chin
I hung to every word you chose to say
Liquor Lady promised me that by the age of 23
something good would finally come my way
Would you come back if you could?
I hope you know you got a place to say
Bound by curiosity, we both wound up lost at sea,
while others stuck round to dig their graves
Standing in the pouring rain, living all your lives in vain
You never let those faces in your way
But you miss those rollin' hills of wood, and the feel of being understood
and the faces that you'd see every fucking day
Would you come back if you could?
I hope you know you got a place to stay
Would you come back if you could?
I hope you know you got a place to stay
