Eric Schwartz Only Be Lyrics

Only Be Lyrics

The traveler is tired, the sun will soon set

I once was inspired, but why,
I forget

I’ve seen through the city and all that it's not

Though
really, I don't need a lot



CHORUS

Just build me a cabin,
surround me with snow

'Cause I'd love to go where there's nowhere to
go

With someone beside me sippin' on tea

And under the afghan we'll
be, only be



The rats have all scurried, the streets are all
bare

But tomorrow the hurried and worried and scared

Will be
scratching the sidewalk for a last piece of cheese

And all I can ask you
is "Please..."



CHORUS 



The kettle is calling from
over the stove

Never a fire was so lovingly felt

Under drifts that
the winter winds drove

In a world where the snows never melt

Hour
after hour, I sit and I stare

Watching the faces emerge from the
glare

They rise and descend into dust

I don't want to leave but I
know that I must

Thus armed with an image, I’ll walk with the blind

My road is a rough one, to this I’m resigned

But when searching for
solace, it's not very far

'Cause whenever I grab by guitar



I'm stuck in a cabin, surrounded with snow

And happy to be where
there's nowhere to go

With someone beside me, sippin' on tea

And
under the afghan with me



CHORUS
