Joe Carter Lyrics

There's certain things you're sure of

Like longitude

It would navigate so easy

When we could talk about the news

And it felt just like Joe Carter

Back in 1993

Floating down and in and over

Then no ground beneath my feet

And things just fall away

I feel less important when you pray

And things just fall away

I remember laughter every day

I'm staring at your jewelry

With holy people's names

I thought my kids would call you uncle

Though our parents ain't the same

And you shunned me like Curt Schilling

With a towel over your face

Disapproving knowing better

Holy tension in it's place

And things just fall away

I feel less important when you pray

And things just fall away

I remember laughter every day

And I don't think I ever told you

Sometimes I feel like Mitch Williams

Missing my spot over and over

I can't remember who I was

And though I could be digging ditches

I could still get Carter out

The sound of Fregosi calling my number

Feels a million miles away

Away

Away

Away
