Smoke In Our Lights - The Avett Brothers

You’re not a girl, you’re a town

You’re snow on the ground

You’re my first year in school

You’re the words in a song that Hoon sang to me

And all around my memories, you dance

You’re not a girl, you’re a car

You’re a red Trans Am

You’re 90 miles an hour

We never get caught cause there’s no cops around

And no roads like this, downtown

Why’d we have to change

It all seems so fine

We’ll go our own ways

We’re both asking

Why’d we have to change

It all seems so fine

We’ll go our own ways

We’re both asking, why

You’re not a girl, you’re the night of the homecoming game

You’re the voice in my head

Just begging me to stay

You’re the smoke in our lights as we sped away

To catch the moonlight on the graves

You’re not a girl, you’re a waltz

You’re a canopy bed

You’re June to August

You’re the back and forth sway of the hammock all day

When I asked you what did you say?

Why’d we have to change

It all seems so fine

We’ll go our own ways

We’re both asking

Why’d we have to change

It all seems so fine

We’ll go our own ways

We’re both asking, why
