Thriving Ivory Come November lyrics

How long do you think you will stand?
A fool in the desert, a boy with no plan
The day's on a last leg again
I cross it all slowly while the next one comes in
But it don't really matter, no

You can't have the world, see you like this
And you can't stay more than a night
But you'll be close where you are
And that I will be missed
But still I can't turn out the lights

I don't wanna live in limbo, baby
I don't wanna come home to and empty bed
Said I'm so tired of the quiet, baby
And I'm too young, to play dead

So come on summer go out with grace
Lay down for a season
And down for the rain
Say you can't have the world, see you like this

And you can't stay for more than a night
But you'll be close where you are
And that I will be missed
But still I can't turn out the lights

I can hear your footsteps at the front door
I can feel your heart rest upon your poor soul

But it don't really matter
'Cause you'll be home come November

I can see trouble from here
Yeah, I can see trouble from here
And I think I'm gonna break soon
Said I think I'm gonna break soon

You can't have the world, see you like this
And you can't stay for more than a night

Swear, I hear your footsteps at the front door
I can feel your heart rest upon your poor soul
But I don't really matter
No, it don't really matter

You can't have the world see you like this
And you can't stay for more than a night
But you'll be close where you are and that I will be missed
But still I can't turn out the lights

I can hear your footsteps at the front door
I can feel your heart rest upon your poor soul
It don't really matter
You'll be home come November
