Andy Hawk & The Train Wreck Endings: Music
Minnesota Girl
(Andy Hawk)
Ships made of paper
a Minnesota girl
and by the light of satellites
we swore we’d change the world
we thought too fast
and moved too slow
the night wore thin, what should’ve been
forever had to go
strange looks in the mirror
taking shape all that you fear
maybe I was the only one
to say what you won’t hear
and I couldn’t shoot straight
with a point of view
but shoot I did, at least I did
I can’t say that of you
the trains are wailing
a background meant for me
a long, slow cry, the reasons why
my days are tumbleweeds
and we have nothing
to lose except ourselves
the music’s loud, our laughter clouds
our lives, a lost motel
oh, where are you going
my Minnesota rain
for what we were, oh, what we were
will never happen again
