lyrics

Me and Cal rented a van at 27, left behind gratuities and petty crimes. Our band drew insults from Youngstown to Charlotte. It still beat bleach-water and punching time. Cause O some nights we struck like lightning, with the crowd all cherry bombs and misted eyes. And O the sleeping bags and stolen kisses, and the wonder of those unfamiliar skies. Last night I caught the Pageant on Dickinson Avenue, as the undergrads and lifers all swayed in time. We all smiled as the plaster fell around us. And then the conquerors jumped in a rented Econoline. Now Cal's gone north on a bloodshot mission. Sometimes we talk long-distance on his label's dime. Sometimes I sing in the car, where no one's listening. It's a long commute, but I swear I could drive it blind. It's been too many summers since I've seen 27, and I don't think I can ever leave home again. You can't leave home. You can't leave home again.
