Lyrics/Song Structure:

======================

---> Play Intro

---> Play Verse over:

   Stranger flowers yet, there will never come a day that will ever regret

   The hours, days, years and the minutes

   The joy the pain the sunshine and rain in it

   The drives on the coast to nowhere, nothing to say just sit and stare

   There's nothing like the comfort of a silence that's comfortable

   Not talking small, just skip the bull

   Then I find myself in servility, didn't think that was my ability

   I go a yard and a mile to make you smile, but then I'm happy see

   I got so many ways to make your gaze elliptical

   Got a ways to go, the future's so cryptical and I'm glad

   Just another many things we've had

---> Play Fill

---> Play Chorus over:

   It's 8:16 A.M. will you wake up to me, the first thing that you see

   My eyes open, I'm just hopin' you feel the same as me

   The day starts carefully

   On the sidewalk with the dog, you're right last night I was a hog

   Come on I'm sorry

   It's 73 degrees, January easily glides

---> Play Intro

---> Play Verse over:

   Stranger flowers still, if you're gonna wanna go another day I will

   Like this, make it a deal, sealed with a kiss

   Sealed with the feel of impermanent bliss

   Today my love we shall let the world slide

   Turn off the ringer and just glide

   For we shall never be younger again than, what do you see

---> Play Fill

---> Play Chorus over:

   It's 8:16 A.M. will you wake up to me, the first thing that you see

   My eyes open, I'm just hopin' you feel the same as me

   The day starts carefully

   On the sidewalk with the dog, you're right last night I was a hog

   Come on I'm sorry

   Holiday on the radio, Billie knows that is the way to go

   The way to go

---> Play Ending over:

   A place where we both can spend our same time, not collecting interest

   Maybe the same reason we always find ourselves homebound

   I've got to do some homework

   The leave response we want to leave Wisconsin for a new life

   A new trailer with an antenna and a porch

   Of course we'll bring the dog
