Brown Park - Son, Ambulance, Bright Eyes

I want to sit with you at Brown Park

We can watch kids play baseball in the field below

My little boy likes the swing, the horse, and the sand

I’m sorry I swung so high if it brushed your hand

Just shake it off — Ha!

We’re vibrating on a hazel wire, on a hazel wire

They never taught us how to play

We learned to flow like wind in waves

I want to wait for you by the poolside

To tell a joke to make you laugh so long

The pool was overfull; the people were diving and splashing in the water

Oh yes they were, oh yes they were

They never taught us how to swim

We learned to drift on an endless sea, so easily

So easily… eeee… easily…

I want to play with you at Brown Park

Until the hills settle down in clean, fresh snow

Then I will sleigh by you on an incline — la, la, laa

And these proud valleys turn into hills just in time

They never taught us how to sing

We learned to follow the drum inside — Go!

They never taught us how to breathe

We learned to listen for the wind outside

They never taught us how to play

We learned to flow like wind in waves — everyday

They never taught us how to swim

We learned to drift on an endless sea — easily

They never taught us how to sing

We learned to follow the drum inside — c’mon, one more time

They never taught us how to breathe

We learned to listen for the wind outside
