Lyrics
Know the cops here, they can't run down to your house
Sometimes I'll sit and wish I were somewhere else
So let's dim the daylights for us sweethearts that we are
Sometimes I find myself still lying in your arms

All the sweethearts of the world
Are out dancing in the places
Where me and all my friends go to hide our faces
Avenues run one way
Streets they run the same
Something in the air here
Still keeps me away

Though the cops here, they can't take me to your house
I get directions and pretend I was somewhere else
All the sweethearts of the world are out littering the bars
And I am still avenues from any place you are
You know avenues run one way
The streets they run the same
It's going to take a lot of shit for me to stay away

What a good character vid for Tim! I love how at the beginning it already feels nostalgic and a bit lost, and only then does it go back to the football. I loved that Tim did get to find his Texas forever post-football, even if he had to struggle so much to find it, and I love how this vid captures all of that.

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it -- and glad that the nostalgia / lost feeling came through, as well as the sense that Tim got to find his Texas forever in his own way.
