lyrics

You know I’ve been around the whole wide world and back so many times
I’ve had problems just remembering your face
And the melancholy brought upon by the absence of those tender lines
Made even getting out of bed feel so out-of-place
And I don’t know if you feel the same half a day away by plane
And I don’t think I could know what to expect
If a wish comes from a shooting star
Maybe mine can shoot that far
And you’ll come running back to me (but that’s not what I expect)

Oh no, you’re a couple of days away from me
Oh no, in a couple of days I guess we’ll see

Well I made my way down corridors past airplanes brought from overseas
And I swear I see you smiling at the door
With the teeming past of huddled masses yearning for a little freedom
It gets confusing to me oh just what I came back for
I don’t know if my hair’s OK or even if you’ll glance that way
And I don’t think I could bring myself to ask
Just how you've been, and how’s our place
And what’s that look upon your face
And is this frenzied carousel really meant to last?

Now are you still my love companion
Entwining our hearts in that unlikely way?
Cause I know there’s a good chance of change
In the air today

We’re a topsy-turvy testament to all our fruitless arguments
It’s amazing one could claim that we’re still strong
And perhaps the feeling of contentment washed in dirty apprehension
Soils my soul down to the core, ‘cause I know that we belong
Right here, wrapped in each others’ arms
Sheltering ourselves from harm
And all the mud we've slung in days gone past
It piles into a mighty heap, I think it’s getting time to sweep
The dust away, it’s time today, and so I've got to ask

Now are you still my love companion
Entwining our hearts in that unlikely way?
Cause I know there’s a good chance of change
In the air to...
I know there’s a good chance of change
In the air to...
I know there’s a good chance of change
And I know things will never be the same
Yes I know there’s a good chance of change
In the air today

about

A Fistful of Sugar image

A Fistful of Sugar Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Centered around strong, lush vocal harmonies and driving "new folk" instrumentals, AFOS is a distinctly modern sound that resonates with echoes of hot jazz, 'old-timey' country, gypsy, and other roots musics. AFOS has wowed audiences with their powerful, genre-bending performances that range from the syrupy-sweet to the gritty and swampy. ... more
