Lyric Fire Maple Song

Turn away from the pain you don t want turning down to avoid them when they call strange
words I heard a long long time ago I wish I could go back to a summer time I knew more
than twenty years ago can t lay between the sheets we lie underneath the maple tree now
I can t smile lying in the grass with the wind around us as we smile and talk and listen
to your Grandma sing those country songs she d tell us how the maple turns to fire every
four years we d sit in the grass all summer jus tto watch the autumn come around... I
can t smile now I live alone and you re so far away I call you once a year just around
the holidays I still see you in the night lying above me in the grass... I can t smile
turn away form the pain you don t want turning down to avoid them when they call I can t
believe this letter that says you died I think I m gomma go back to the house in North
Carolina and lay in the backyard get drunk and let the leaves just bury me bury me... I
can t smile
