Jackopierce Vineyard lyrics

It's six o'clock now in the morning
As I wait for my train to come
To take me somewhere just outside of Boston
As I run to find the other sun

And I'm leaving more behind than I care to talk about
Just more pain than this hard a man can use
As this big world's always spinning
Now that I've thought I was winning
I never thought, I never thought I'd lose

This great force, it takes me to the ferry
To cross wind and water, so untamed
And I'm on that ship, my life just seems so very
Small in comparison to everything around

But there's this girl over there, she's got mahogany hair
And her eyes of sweet amethyst
I bow as she curtseys, doesn't look like she's gonna hurt me
So I decide to add her to my list and she says, and she says

Won't you stay on the vineyard for the summer?
Won't you stay on the vineyard for the year?
We'll find a little house down there in Oak Bluffs
And our children is all that we hear


Seems now that I should be going
As that one day turned into five or six
Although I'm loving all the beautiful things she's showing
I pack up and I'm enveloped by the mist

That girl over there, she's got mahogany hair
And her eyes of sweet amethyst
I think that maybe it would be better
If I just wrote her a letter
But instead she grabs me and we kiss
And she says, "You ain't going nowhere"

Stay on the vineyard for the summer
Won't you stay on the vineyard for the year
We'll find a little house down there in Oak Bluffs
And our children is all that we'll hear

Stay on the vineyard for the summer
Won't you stay on the vineyard for the year
We'll find a little house down there in Oak Bluffs
And our children is all that we'll hear
She says
