Branches waving madly in the air

Waving round like they don't even care



Last time I considered leaving here

The roads caught fire and I drank all our beer



Out here at my post I've learned a lot

I've learned that the fruit on the ground is gonna rot

There's more ATM's with air conditioning then there are birds on the wing



Out here at my post I've learned a few things

Like the sun ain't afraid to bleach out a dream

And the way that you were ain't the way that you will always be



Please believe me



Branches wave and ask for change to spare

Once I did, but now I barely care



Last time I considered leaving town

Something dumb came up and I turned around
