Scotland Barr & The Slow Drags Love Is Pavement lyrics

If you want them back
I've got your songs trapped in my attic
With an old cape and the ghost
Of nearly and almost
And a pillow of warm excuses

Red autumn leaves, yellow autumn leaves
A letter sent in wet cement
So many years ago
To someone you'll never know
Who wanders by and wonders who you were

Love is pavement, cracked and hard
Long live the road that gets me back to where you are

My, I'd like to know

I kept some nice days in my closet
Beneath the box of homeless keys
Yeah, that's you and me
On Love Creek that first summer

Red autumn leaves, yellow autumn leaves
Autumn leaves, she always leaves
Her papers on the floor
Observations on the war
And a note to fix the plumbing tacked to the door

Love is pavement, cracked and hard
Long live the road that gets me back to where you are
