look at that green

out through the screen

after a quick rain came

so fast that

there wasn't time

to roll up the windows

and pull the clothes down off the line

but i don't care

it was so dry

and the grass is happy

and i think 'so am i'

'cause i'm through thinking about you



for now i'm out at the hideout

far enough outside of town

you can come

you can stay

if there's something you need

to get away from



look at the day dropping away

hear the traffic pass along

a distant sideroad down the way

i think the dust has settled on me

but i don't care, it was so calm

i knew i wouldn't stay forever

knew i'd get some things together

and move on



but for now i'm out at the hideout

far enough outside of town

you can come, you can stay

if there's something you need

to get away from



i just thought of you

and what you said

laid out on the pullout

did you forget?

you said you wouldn't forget



look at that green

out through the screen

after a quick rain came

so fast that

there wasn't time to roll up the window

and pull the clothes down off the line

but i don't care

it was so dry

the grass is happy and i think 'so am i'

'cause i'm through thinking about you



and for now i'm out at the hideout

far enough outside of town

you can come out

you can come out

when there is no one around

all out at the hideout

far enough from being found

you can come, you can stay

if there's something you need

to get away from
