lyrics

The Hat Shop

I’m gonna lie in the middle of a sleepy ocean
Get swallowed up by the moon
Gonna come back later and find you smiling
In the golden days of June

There is a song in the alley, you can hear it coming
Coming up through the lane
And the drums in your heart they start to rumbling
And it’s feeling like a hurricane
And it goes,

Ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah ah.

Well I’m going up that ladder
I don’t really need it, I don’t need it anymore
I can reach right up and touch the stars
While standing on the shore

I want to go down easy cause easy going
Yeah easy would be good
I want to spend the day at the old hat shop
Down in the neighborhood

Ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah,
Ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah ah

Bridge:
I didn’t waste my time
I didn’t waste my time
I got some peace of mind
Oh I got some peace of mind

I’m gonna pack up all of my earthly troubles
And leave them by the river side
Im gonna step out on the old platform
And take a long long ride

I wanna reach back down for you little darlings
And tell you that it’s alright
And I’ll tell you in the brand new morning
Gonna tell you in the blue of night.

Ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah,
Ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah

I’m gonna stop my mind from all it’s worry
And go and rise above
I want to kick my shoes off and dance around
In the arms of love

Ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah,
Ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah ah
