Johnny Sunrise Lyrics

"You're a star," he says, "you've bottled your grace It's a laugh to watch you try to keep pace With the steps we made together one night with beer And you called me Johnny Sunrise." Johnny Sunrise walks away from me Takes his time and he takes me too seriously Locks his thoughts away in a box he built While I was gone Johnny Sunrise But remember the bite of those November nights when we rode out To fight for the light of our lives to be turned out Sweat and perfume and new bread as the moon faded Stumbling home spilling out stories we wouldn't forget in a hurry But then we weren't in a hurry Our faces are mirrors lines and scars that we've earned All the classes we missed all the lessons we learned All the roads that we took that took us apart Now you're sitting there saying, "Let's go back to the start." And he says, "Lose that luggagge let it all go Job you got job you lost what it cost al lthe things you now know All the girls you once had and the man that you are Let's climb off this world again And climb into my car Let's climb into my car Drive away in my car." Spilling out stories we wouldn't forget in a million years But then we didn't have a million years Johnny Hurry up
