Texas Reznikoff Lyrics Translations
[Verse 1]
It's beautiful out today
I wish you could take me upstate
To the little place you would tell me about
When you'd sense that I'd want to escape
[Verse 2]
Texas is a land-locked state
It's a little bit far away
From the water, from the home that I've wanted
to make
It somehow, in the city, you make it there and
you make it

[Chorus]
Anywhere, anywhere
But I've been anywhere and it's not what I want
I wanna be still with you
Doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo
[Bridge]
You keep your socks on in bed
Keep our hearth warm
"See the trees' shadows lie in black pools in the
lawns"
You're the breeze in my Austin nights
[Outro]
You're the breeze in my Austin nights
You're the breeze in my Austin nights
You might also like
