Lyrics Kevin Morby – Savannah

Savannah, you look so pretty today
I gotta go though and be on my way
But I’ll be back, honey, that’s a fact
With a laugh on my face and a good tar on my back

And when there’s nothing better, we talk about the weather outside
(Ah)
And I know it seems like screaming, but, man, I’m only dreaming in time
(Ah, ah)

Savannah, has it been so long?
But I’m back, babe, with a brand new song
And a stage, a couple dozen who’ve paid
Most have gone, but you stayed, you stayed

And when there’s nothing better, we’d sit and watch the weather outside
(Ah)
And I know it seems like screaming, but, man, I’m only dreaming in time
(Ah, ah)

We’ve come a long, long way, man
I never thought you’d make it out alive
If I had my guessing when we were younger, you’d be dead by now
But here we are now, just two faces in the crowd now
Now, now
I used to practice what I’d have to say at your funeral
And I have dreams in which you die
And maybe you did, but either way you’re an angel now
And after so long, you’re familiar, like blood
And the conversation hangs between us
