Basement Tapes

Lyrics

So we get
 Loaded in the van and drive through the suburbs
 And we set
 Out on Highway 35 to discover
 What's the plan?
 Sliding through the dark in all kinds of weather
 Where's the map?
 One of us is barely holding it together
 I've still got all your basement tapes
 I'm still hearing you drift away
 Saying those things that you just don't say
 Right to your brother
 Hide your head in the evergreen
 Ply your heavenly alchemy
 Still just living the big star dream
 Life with each other
 Yeah!
 ♪
 So we tool
 Down the Kansas City they sleep on a sofa
 And we're cool
 Temporarily 'cause we're from Minnesota
 Later on
 Walking in the dark with a sweet babysitter
 On the lawn
 Talking while inside, you made out with her sister
 I've still got all your basement tapes
 I'm still hearing you drift away
 Saying those things that you just don't say
 Right to your brother
 Hide your head in the evergreen
 Ply your heavenly alchemy
 Still just living the big star dream
 Life with each other
 Summer diamonds rushing by us
 Wake me up when we get there
 ♪
 I'm still cranking your basement tapes
 I'm still hearing you drift away
 Sing those things that you just don't say
 Right to your brother
 Hide your head in the evergreen
 Ply your heavenly alchemy
 Still just living the big star dream
 Life with each other
 Yeah!
 ♪
 Yeah!
