The Humid Press of Days Lyrics & Tabs by Camper Van Beethoven
The Humid Press of Days
guitar chords lyrics
What did it mean to fly?
A tremor in your soul
To resist the dull existence of gravity
Upward bound, trees (dry?)
To meadows and the fields
And the border is a simple line of hills
Did you come uncoiled
Between heavens and the Earth
Whisper nonsense into your radio?
Now afternoons you seldom move
Grounded to a little bit of earth
And after all, time barely crawls
Unoccupied, between each breath it sticks
What did it mean to fly
When you were bound to the Earth?
Unoccupied, between each breath it sticks
What did it mean to fly
When you were bound to the Earth?
A release from the humid press of days
Now afternoon air hardly moves
I wonder how you make it through each day
And after all, time barely crawls
Unoccupied, between each breath it sticks
What did it mean to fly?
A tremor in your soul
To resist the dull existence of gravity
What did it mean to you?
An airy chat with death
To pull your body for a moment from your soul
