Shot of Halcyon

from Bloodline by Wampeters

/

lyrics

in the wake of all that's happened, he said
my spirits are dampened
and it feels like I've lost my way
when I try to gain my footing
it never is a good thing
it's not like it was in the halcyon days

when everything is said and done, he said
the years when you were young
never really pass away
they hang in the air
like a trunk full of spares
in case you're getting bored with today

so give me my shot of halcyon, he said
God knows it's no crime
to return to the time
when the dreams were filling
and the girls were willing
take me home

nothing ever happens anymore, he said
when you think you know the score
the whistle blows and it's over
and it's plain as day to see
that it's not a best of three
when you find yourself running for cover

he said that once the cards are dealt
the hand is merely held

take me home
