Asheville (Demo Series) Lyrics

A week from now I'll be coming down right back in this place

And I'm wondering if a different me will land

I'm trying to text you from the losing side of flight delays

I get desperate when things don't go as planned

If I touch down tonight in Asheville

I'm hoping I will

And turn the page

The rain it comes and goes in Asheville

About as steady

As my faith

The worst part is she's getting more like your mother every day

I hear a father tell his girl

This terminal's all fear and need and anger at the wait

Sometimes I shudder at the world

A gang of teenage freedom boys are learning to be men from other boys again

And bragging 'bout the win in some tournament

That don't mean nothing to nobody but these boys and

I try to pay attention - try to take it in

Put away my phone in my back pocket, yeah cos'

Every little thing never happens again

Every little thing never happens again

If I touch down tonight in Asheville

I'm hoping I will

And turn the page

The rain it comes and goes in Asheville

About as steady

As my faith

I think I'm ready to be washed away

Washed away

A week ago I was taking off for Asheville

My hands out begging for a change

A glass of wine, a friend of mine

And I hear this poet say

She says love is not a fullness but an ache

Oh she says love is not a fullness but an ache

And I don't know how much more love I can take
