Heartsleeves

Take all of your tears and make
A great lake that’ll freeze in winter
I’ve counted all the days that we’ve spent
I think I’ve denied you are my sister
I’ve been out of touch in my glory
I’ve been packing every day
Heartsleeves
The joy’s long gone
But I try to see
Where it all went wrong
Don’t stop wearing it all on your sleeve
Don’t stop 'cause of me
Take all of these years that I spent
The sideman blues in a grave
I swear all that won’t be my legacy
Leaving you for New York state
I was in a rush to write a story
I was packing every day
