Recorded in Bremerton, WA at Rimbert Illustrations by Jack Parker (Homegrown Recording Co.) on 6/20/22

lyrics

It used to be that we would spend our days inside
And guiltlessly take pleasure in the rain
You would bake the bread and I would light the fire
Our friends would say we're prisoners of desire

But life's too short to play it safe
Let's hit the road before it gets too late

I was drinking on the roof and I was cursing like a fool
When the fire came and sparked the edge of town
That fire was getting near and we were all out of beer
So we turned our backs and spit into the wind

Cause life's too short to play it safe
Let's hit the road before it gets too late

Throw our fate to the wind
You're the ace up my sleeve
You're the lighter in my pocket when there's no fire to be found
You move me baby, oh baby I'm so moved

This is how we want to be
Our lives a mystery
We've dug the earth and planted our own seed
If the whole thing goes to hell
And all the good folks felled
Let's sing this song before they get us too

Cause life's too short to play it safe
Let's hit the road before it gets too late

Cause life's too short to play it safe
Let's hit the road before it gets too late

Throw our fate to the wind
You're the ace up my sleeve
You're the lighter in my pocket when there's no fire to be found
You move me baby, oh baby I'm so moved

I get so moved, I get so moved, I get so moved by you
