Megan - Bad Astronaut

Butter on a summer day

When she’s around

I was on the tracks

When the gates came down

When suddenly I recognized

Those bloodshot rearview mirror eyes as mine

And I heard that whistle call my name

And I almost drove away

But Megan I had a feeling that you would be on that train

So I just waited there for you

Caught a ride to another town

Where the air was clean

And the sun never goes down

Everyone was standing in a line

Between the landing and the stairs

I heard somebody call my name

I almost climbed the stairs

But Megan I had a feeling that someday you’d meet me there

So I just waited there for you

Butter on a summer day

When I hear your name

It’s a dream that never came true

So I sat down on the tracks

And waited for a train to take me back to you

And somebody came and took my hand

And I finally had to go

But Megan I just want you to know

That I waited as long as I could

I’m butter on a summer day when she’s around
