Lyrics Carbon Leaf

Carbon Leaf

On Any Given Day

I woke up broke free, drove a long time

It didn't purge you from my mind

Hang up the hill maybe your right

Chalk it up to a starry night

To be set free to live and learn

Did we pass or fail the term?

You wrote a note with chalk on my door

A message I'd known long before

On any given day you'll find me gone

On any given day you'll find me gone

Give me your reason, give me your rhyme

So I can tempo me to your time

So I can scratch your surface and be

A deeper part of the mystery

To be undone to be alone

To live life in monotone

I reach the beach and try to ignore

The warning I'd known long before

On any given day you'll find me gone

On any given day you'll find me gone

I've been down to the sea

I've been down to the sea

And so all of the lovers will say

Forever star crossed will we stay

Still I can't help feeling

Castaway on any given day

Still I can't help feeling

You'll run away on any given day

I window shop for you in my mind

A flannel shirt at the five and dime

A leather coat cut fixed in a style

Boots from plastic crocodile

A pine cone dipped in glitter glue

A penny 1942

A necklace with a cheap green stone

Barefeet, cold sand, chilled to the bone

On any given day you'll fine me gone

On any given day you'll fine me gone

I've been down to the sea

I've been down to the sea

And so all of the lovers will say

Forever star crossed will we stay

Still I can't help feeling

Castaway on any given day

Still I can't help feeling

You'll run away on any given

My eye on you, my eye on you

My eye on you always

My eye on you, my eye on you

My eye on you always

Still I can't help feeling

Castaway on any given day

Still I can't help feeling

You'll run away on any given day

Lift my hands up smell to reveal

Your perfume on the steering wheel

You're next to me asleep and I smile

I think I'll drive on for a while

On any given day you'll find me gone
