Woke up with the phone next to my head
by the time I get around to gettin' out of bed
she'll be halfway through her daily routine
shoes, shirt, jacket, coffee, keys, cigarette
out the door with a lazy swagger in my step
keep my momentum try hard not to lose steam
and while she's dreamin' about the ocean
I will be dreamin' of a plan
to keep these wheels in constant motion
and in the meantime we'll just do what we can
So I cross the bridge and punch the clock
hit the wall pretty hard about 2 o'clock
and i start thinking bout where I'd rather be
cause I've been getting pretty good at gettin' all worked up
it used to be that i just never really gave a fuck
now all these little things weigh heavy on me
and while I'm tying on another
she's tying up all her loose ends
it makes me think about my brothers
and how I wish I was closer to them
So I'm stumblin' home through the park
I hate the weather and how early it gets dark
and summer is comin' like some long holiday
what she needs is some sunshine on her face
a change in temperature, a little change of pace
so come on honey, you've been so far away yeah
so just keep dreamin' bout that ocean
I swear I'll dream us up a plan
to keep our wheels in constant motion
but in the meantime we'll just do what we can.
