Honey Jar

from The Muse by The Wood Brothers

/

lyrics

Standin’ on the back of that train with your open arms
Lookin’ at the big sky listenin' to the smoke alarm
You wonder what happened guess your heart must'a jumped the track
Put your lips out in the wind and you hope you get some kissin' back

Every night you get the same old dream
There’s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be
And there's
Honey drippin' off your spoon
Honey drippin' off your spoon

White skin freckles big hard candy green eyes
Bet you wish you had your red headed woman back sometimes
The last thing you got was a left handed letter
And you opened up the seal like you didn't even know better

Every night you get the same old dream
There’s a spoon full of honey where your heart should be
And there's
Honey drippin' off your spoon
Honey drippin' off your spoon

Don’t you know your spoon's gettin' low
You worry and you wonder just where all the honey goes
But if you hope it and you pray real hard
If you will it you can wish it
Heaven is a Honey Jar
