Stories To Tell - Dave Barnes

Let’s get to bed early

Sneak out right before the sunrise

We don’t need all the goodbyes

We won’t be gone for long

Oh, baby, don’t worry

I hid away a little money

We don’t need much, honey

Enough just to get us home

Let’s don’t wait til love comes undone

There’s life to be lived

And stories to tell

Lessons to learn

We don’t know yet

Nothing to lack, looking back

Knowing that we have lived it well

With stories to tell

What about California

LA out by the seaside?

Watch the sun turn to moonlight

Then stay up and talk til dawn

Maybe Carolina

Hide out up in the mountains

A week or two, no one’s counting

Come back before too long

We won’t wait til love comes undone

There’s life to be lived

And stories to tell

Lessons to learn

We don’t know yet

Nothing to lack, looking back

Knowing that we have lived it well

With stories to tell

The sea and the cities

The runway lights

The highway humming

Staying awake all night

How all those mountains

Turned to desert sand

Let’s just disappear

Come on baby, take my hand

There’s life to be lived

And stories to tell

Lessons to learn

We don’t know yet

There’s life to be lived

And stories to tell

Lessons to learn

We don’t know yet

Nothing to lack, looking back

Knowing that we have lived it well

With stories to tell

The sea and the cities

The runway lights

The highway humming

Staying awake all night

How all those mountains

Turned to desert sand

Let’s disappear
