I felt it at the hillside
Where the glaciers carved out long ago
And the thundering crawl of that ancient wall
Like my own mounting sureness and grim resolve
'Cause I knew I would leave her, I knew so hard
But all she heard was the droning sound of the distant passing cars
So come to me like a lion
Or don't come to, don't come here at all
Took one glance backwards, now I'm not so sure
At times she was blinding
At times she was America's girl
And her sidewalks were paved in the stutter-fade
Of the time-shifting streetlights, the life they gave
To the tension and closeness, the distance, aloneness
My confidant, this stranger
So come to me like a lion
Or don't come to, don't come here at all
Took one glance backwards, now I'm not so sure
And oh no
The ironies exposed
Ohh no dear, it seems that
Time is frozen when you're near me
Her skin is Atlantic
Like the glimmer bounced up from below
By the moonlight that lays in the summer's waves
The maritime riffs that the sailors played
Or the tributes they strummed for their landlocked days
When they dreamed about going to sea
So come to me like a lion
Or don't come to, don't come here at all
Took one glance backwards, now I'm not so sure
So come to me, I'll be waiting
And we'll spend our last days in the sun
Took one glance backwards, the damage is done
