Decades by The Lil Smokies Lyrics

Kind eyes, true, vivid, bold
They move across the sky like a boat
When inches beg themselves to be feet
She pulls the pages over her head like sheets

Fools gold, bright sterile stone
She strikes against the fire she turns to coal
And wakes from dreams of engine steam
And still, she lies like a plastic figurine

Another decade gone, failed in vain
A city stained in a warm spring rain
Close your eyes feel the warmth settin' in
No place to start, nowhere to begin

Lost smile, how you'd disappear
Too soon you left, now I'm tasting salty tears
Next time I will tell you everything
And we'll dance to the fiddle and the silver tambourine

Another decade gone, failed in vain
A city stained in a warm spring rain
Close your eyes feel the warmth settin' in
No place to start, nowhere to begin
Woodsmoke, thick pungent air
She wipes away her eyes she turns away
And briefly forgets how far it is
Back to the mountains and the cool streams she's missed

Another decade gone, failed in vain
A city stained in a warm spring rain
Close your eyes feel the warmth settin' in
No place to start, nowhere to begin

Another decade gone, fade away
Another decade gone, fade away
Another decade gone, fade away
Another decade gone, fade away
