For the Summer - Ray LaMontagne

Rollin' through these hills I've known I'd be comin'
Ain't a man alive that likes to be alone?
Been a while since I seen my lady smilin'
Have I been, have I been away so long?

I am tired
I am tired

Can I come home for the summer?
I could slow down for a little while
Get back to loving each other
Leave all those long and lonesome miles behind

Through the years I have learned
Some things worth the tellin'
And you'd be right in guessin'
That each and every lesson they were hard won

I am tired
I am tired

Can I come home for the summer?
I could slow down for a little while
Get back to loving each other
Leave all those long and lonesome miles behind

You'll follow her wherever she goes
You love her and you just wanted to know
That you'll follow her, you'll find a way
'Cause you love her and you just wanted to know

my glasses aren't functioning properly (10 reasons)

 

1 grumpy husband trying to get a new business off the ground 

2 surly teens studying for midterm exams

3 big pups with (12) muddy paws

4 baskets of laundry waiting to be folded

5 drops of half and half in the carton and I. Need. Coffee.

6 boxes of Christmas decorations to be repacked and stored

7 years of bad luck - yeah, I just broke a mirror

8 new gray hairs - at least

9 weeks until spring

10 minutes until I have to get back in the car...
