Our Time

Post by Kush »

A song about love, food and memories by John Hiatt...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXnEkMs1lAY

Now you are feeding me fabulous Chinese takeout on the dampened bed-sheets
Our last supper or so you might say
I woke up in a cold sweat and realized we had never cooked one meal together
You always said why bother
With the cuisines of the world laid out at our feet here everyday

Straight Outta Time (Live Austin City Limits, 1993)

...I, on the other hand, can hold a grudge...

so JH writes this awesome song

Hot summer night, I was counting all the starlight on your skin
Airtight, I watched you breathing out, I'm breathing in
By the lake, so humid that the moon was getting wet
For our sake, the crickets started playing their castanets
Like a gypsy, you stole me from a child into a man
It never hit me, I've been running ever since I took a stand
And this love like Spanish moss hangin' from the trees
Just swaying in the breeze, like a sweet memory

Running straight outta time, straight outta time
Running straight outta time, straight outta time
Since you were mine

That autumn chill sent a shiver, girl, it shook us to the bone
And we still had February frozen on the telephone
Spring thaw, would it find us with our lips frozen blue?
Love calls, but do we really live the time we're running through?
Or like a dream, do we let it die and drift away to sleep
Until it screams like an echo in the history books you keep
'Cause this stream running from the corners of my mind
Looking back I find like a river it unwinds

Running straight outta time, straight outta time
Running straight outta time, straight outta time

Running straight outta time just like an old man's fiddle
Looking for the dance; gonna meet me in the middle
I'm never gonna figure out the way that I feel -
Running straight outta time,
But this love's still real

Now I see you, you're looking pretty in your summer dress
I can almost feel you as you clutch your little locket to your breast
Looking down at the picture, girl, you know you're looking fine
Is it me? Was I ever in your heart or on your mind?
Cause I'm running outta time
I'm running straight outta time
Were you ever mine?

I know a place
That goes no further
Than where you are
When you leave it behind

One piece of advice
From one son to another
Get out of your mind
Get out of your mind
