If the wind blew sparks from my fingertips,
could i burn this whole house down?
Well I’m older now,
and it feels so strange,
when I look in the mirror
sometimes theres hair on my face
well, when boys get older they become men
but if I'm still a boy, well what if that?
well what then?
If I burn all the matches in your matchbox
If I go to the store and buy more matches,
will I have any light to give?
Oh maryland
Such a beautiful state
I was only there for a minute, I don’t really know your name
was it mary, Annie, Jill, Or Jane?
oh maryland, someday I’ll know your name
I’ve written a lot of songs a few now about maryland
in the rain and the snow and the burning heat about being torn down
or lifted off my feet
and everyone of them in anticipation of when we’ll meet about
our distance and relation or our relative location,
but its all just geography
If I shot light from my fingertips and that screaming, crying kid,
well I kicked that shit
would it be any different in good time would you look behind you see the sun and say
“what shine, oh what a shine I have in my eyes!”
Oh maryland
Such a beautiful state
I was only there for a minute, I don’t really know your name
was it mary, Annie, Jill, Or Jane?
oh maryland, someday I’ll know your name
Now it’s an endless battle with my busted car speaker
I thought I’d hide the rattle if I made my music louder but it just made the little rattle louder too
I got new shades,
I got new shades,
I’m afraid of the day so I got new shades
