Blow It All Away

Eilen Jewell


Let's just keep driving you and me 
I like your soft voice and your pleasant company 
We can pull each other out of this dusty little town 
Make a new start somewhere maybe settle down 

I wanna get me a mean little bike 
Black and chrome or anything you like 
You can teach me how to ride it in style 
Put it on the pike and head south a million miles 

I asked the wind as it blew on by 
What we should do and it replied 
Blow it all away 
All these burdens needn't stay 

I wanna fix up a row boat for you 
We could row it out at sunset and you know what we could do 
Doesn't it feel like this is how it should be 
These stars, these dreams, and you and me 

Sometimes I feel like the world's on my back 
Like there's so much to lose and so much I lack 
But the truth is the world's at my command 
The way you love me it's all in my hands 

A breath and a wish, and we're gone
