“Mason Jars”
Music & Lyrics by Scott Morris ©2008
VS. 1
An old guitar, and mason jars, seem to be the dreams we had before the fall.
A simple life would make it right, and somehow remedy the wrongs that we recall.
CHORUS
But life is not so simple, and words are not that sweet;
and they can’t explain the times when I can’t breathe.
As we brace for the loneliness moving in for the kill,
I’ll keep you here – in this song – when all is dark and still;
Playing my guitar, and sippin’ on your mason jars.
VS. 2
The love we made, the price we paid, for a taste of what we thought was good to know.
No picture books, to keep the looks that keep coming even though it shouldn’t show.
(Chorus)
BRIDGE
Where now? There’s no compass for a search like this.
And how do I move on like you don’t exist?
(Chorus)
ENDING
My old guitar, your mason jars, seem to be our only dreams after all.
