I’ve been here before looking at the wild country Opening the screen door, talking with Diane Lee (That’s my grandma!!!) Radio singin’ from the corner of the kitchen I’ve got the oven on I got the onions wishin’ they hadn’t made me cry Filling the sink with dishes Lettin’ em air dry Waitin’ for the wind’s permission Too many movies got me shivering and shy Turning the lights out glisten’ in the owl’s eye Glimmer like lightning Under the violet sky, shimmer like diamonds Watching the red moon rise
