[music intro]
|
|
How can you say something new about being alone,
|
Tell somebody you're a loner?
|
Right away they think you're lonely,
|
It's not the same thing, you know.
|
It's not wanting to put all your marbles in one pocket.
|
And that's caring enough not to care too much.
|
Mostly, I guess it's letting yourself come first for a while.
|
|
[music interlude]
|
|
One day, I'm gonna find me an island, a think place,
|
Go there with a mess of records and a ukalele,
|
Just sit strumming, I might even do some thinking,
|
About the women and the towns that I left behind.
