| Lyrics |
Turn away from the pain you don't want turning down to avoid them when they call strangewords I heard a long long time ago I wish I could go back to a summer time I knew morethan twenty years ago can't lay between the sheets we lie underneath the maple tree now
I can't smile lying in the grass with the wind around us as we smile and talk and listento your Grandma sing those country songs she'd tell us how the maple turns to fire everyfour years we'd sit in the grass all summer jus tto watch the autumn come around... Ican't smile now I live alone and you're so far away I call you once a year just aroundthe holidays I still see you in the night lying above me in the grass... I can't smileturn away form the pain you don't want turning down to avoid them when they call I can'tbelieve this letter that says you died I think I'm gomma go back to the house in North
Carolina and lay in the backyard get drunk and let the leaves just bury me bury me... Ican't smile
