When I was young we were livin in the country,
south of Austin in the hills of Bear Creek,
and you can follow that water to the Texas Colorado
and there on out to Matagorda Beach.
I hear the ocean, I hear the waves, I hear the music they make...
Lookin' for arrowheads by the old windmill,
scratchin our names in the rust with our knives,
thunderstorms gatherin on the wester hills,
laughin in the lightnin and runnin for our lives.
I hear the wind, I hear the rain, I hear the music they make...
Moonlight shinin in the thick thick night,
smokestack lightnin, bells like gold,
dawn come risin in the thin thin light,
I know I still have what I cannot still hold.
I hear the dawn, I hear the day, I hear the music they make...
I hear the wind, I hear the rain, I hear the music they make...
I hear the ocean, I hear the waves, I hear the music they make...

Tell Them

Yeah I still go on long walks down county roads
find a place to watch the edges glow
and sit and watch the shadows grow
Every night I listen to the interstate
that sound that I used to make
that sound of going away
before I found reasons to stay
Tell my sisters, my brothers
Tell my friends, my lovers
Tell them I never meant to hurt them
Tell them I was hurting
It's summer here
and I'm another year older again
just wanna spend it singin
writing something for you
I never knew how to be
the person I wanted to be
it used to make me so angry
and I grieved for all I couldn't be
Tell my sisters, my brothers
Tell my friends, my lovers
Tell them I never meant to hurt them
Tell them I was hurting
