Turn away from the pain you don't want
Turn them down to avoid them when they call
Words I heard a long, long time ago
Wanna go back to a summertime
I knew more than twenty years ago,
Lay between the sheets, hide underneath the maple tree.

(no lyrics first two times)
Sitting in the grass with the wind around us
as we smile and talk,
Listen to your grandma sing those country songs,
She'd tell us how the maple turned to fire every four years,
Sit in the grass all summer just to watch the autumn come around

(no lyrics first two times)
Turn away from the pain you don't want
Turn them down to avoid them when they call
I can't believe this letter that says you've died
Gonna go back to that house in North Carolina,
Lay in the backyard,
Get drunk and let the leaves just bury me.
