Orchid South Lyrics

It's hotter than hell but don't it make for a sunset

Maybe I'm late and there's nothing left

I oughta take what I can get

The chemical trails are pointing the way to your house

Maybe I'm not what you dream about

But I'm here and I'm right now, right now

It's all beginning, beginning to end

I'd give up the rest just to see you again tonight

Tonight

Driving tonight on top of the New Madrid faultline

Rearview's shaking the skyline

It's only a matter of...

The song of the summer's tracking the time to your house

Maybe we're not what they sing about

But we're here and we're right now, right now

Nuclear sky, lavender skin

I'd give what's left just to hold you again tonight

Tonight

Blind in the turns that lead the way to your house

I'm on fire in orchid South

I'm here right now, screaming out

I swear to the stars, I swear to the street

I swear to the eyelash caught on your cheek

To The Big One, to the bonfire, the phone if it rings

Everything else means nothing to me tonight

Tonight
