Despite all of my brazen lyrics you fell for me And we were like a thousand miles apart for weeks Remember El Paso your skin it warmed its streets Your selfless passion claimed my heart for keeps
Come on down come on down In ties and wedding gowns Sweet words sweet sounds Are simply paramount Come on down come on down Don’t you know that everything will be fine, everything will be just fine
I’ve got no jitters got no qualms No fretting nerves or sweating palms The sun is shining where I see While clouds surround you and me
I’m not shaky I’m not taut I’m not stressed Or overthought
Patient singing all my complaints about devotion singing out jokes about fish in the ocean All the lonely songs and the stories I wrote Filling up the black and white and purple and gold Never find me lacking when there’s misery involved Now I write what it’s like to become old and all the things I wanna say oh I have waited for this day
