Almond Colored Sheets

(album: Mammoth Swoon - 2010)

I was running through a bad dream
But now I'm waking up
She says almond colored sheets are best for dreaming
But it means nothing here
She says almond colored sheets are the best for dreaming in
But she has appeared to tell me in my dream
Whoa oh oh
I'd like to be alive long enough to sail
I'd like to be alive long enough to sail the Dead Sea

I saw my grandfather today
He was lying like precious bones in a bed
This time the year before last, I was smoking cigarettes in a sleeping bag
It was my friend's room, but I lived there too
And one night I stepped out of the shower to discover that his Mother
Had taken my towel so I had to resort to using your old kindergarten
Your old kindergarten t-shirt
Whoa oh oh when are you coming home?
Whoa oh oh when are you coming home?

I'd like to be alive long enough to sail
I'd like to be alive long enough to sail the Dead Sea
I'd like to stay alive long enough to sail the Dead Sea
Whoa oh oh when are you coming home?
Whoa oh oh when are you coming home?
