Lyrics

Trickle into Tennesee make a new start
I’m a half-pint bleeder with a swollen heart
I’ll be out raging dark ‘til dawn
Can we meet up later let me sing you songs
I’m a flower and a faker and a shining seed
But I gotta dig into the ground I need
We can sing at the moon and yell at the stars
And pretend we’re better than we think we are

We don’t grow if we don’t know who we are
We don’t see what we miss when we’re closer than this
This Distance

Would you choose me if I chose you
I’ll be your Gram if you’d be Emmylou
You’d be my Tammy I’ll be your George
Until we forget what we came here for
Yeah until we forget what we came here for

We don’t grow if we don’t know who we are
We don’t see what we miss when we’re closer than this
This Distance

We don’t grow if we don’t know who we are
We don’t see what we miss when we’re closer than this
This Distance
This Distance
This Distance
