Dreamsicle

I guess we're leaving town again We're moving out and moving in Gotta break the news to all my friends But they won't care They'll just find another face To fall behind to take my place And run way up past second base And just stand there A dreamsicle on a summer night In a folding lawn chair Witches ring around the moon Better get home soon Poison oak and poison ivy Dirty jokes that blew right by me Mama curling up beside me Crying to herself Why can't daddy just come home? Forget whatever he did wrong He's in a hotel all alone And we need him A dreamsicle on a summer night In a folding lawn chair I'm still packing up my room Gotta get home soon New sneakers on a high school court And you swore you'd be there A heart breaking through the springtime Breaking into June Broken glass and broken vows I'll be eighteen four years from now With different friends in a different town I'll finally be free Call you both some holiday Tell you why I moved away Say everything's gonna be okay You can come see me A dreamsicle on a summer night In a folding lawn chair Daddy's howling at the moon Better get home soon Heat lightning in the evening sky And my mother's red hair Hearts breaking through the springtime Breaking into June Breaking into June Breaking into June
