Only Be Lyrics - Singles - Eric Schwartz

The traveler is tired, the sun will soon set 

I once was inspired, but why, I forget 

Ive 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, Ill walk with the blind 

My road is a rough one, to this Im 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
