lyrics

Moving here for all my years.

Those fancy beachside people thought that I had gone crazy, but after years of heart search knew with you I’d want to be. Many born in you felt stuck and warned that I would, too. Some transplants disenchanted now looked elsewhere to plant new.

Import/export functionality! Import! Export! This town’s specialty!

Laughed at lack of appreciation for my perfect home, yet something in me prefers to adore what others don’t. And felt camaraderie with downtown’s rocker scene. Unlike in my former homes, these neighbors knew my name.

Import/export functionality! Import! Export! Leaving’s not for me!

Some believed in me enough to sing my own heart’s songs. Good friends happily received, yet something beyond wrong. Majority passively freezing me as spectator. Home did not recognize me, cared less as I got better.

Import/export functionality! Import! Export! This town’s specialty!

This constant flow new people once appealed in energy, but after years have almost no friends from the start but me. Tucson’s not hot and dry enough, I’ve come to realize. Downtown’s now drunk on hip whine like homes I’d left behind.

Import/export functionality! Import! Export! Even I’m leaving!

Found a new town suits me though old home against it scorns, and though they warn of recidivism, I know once gone I’m gone. Yet thankful I will always be for nurturing my dreams, I’ll do no more than visit unless we can make this deal: Turn your clocks back to 2003, and your winters up ten degrees!

Move away in any day.
