can i keep you? (to live and die in friendship, maine) - heath mcnease lyrics

[intro]
casper, close the window, it’s cold

[verse 1: isaac knox]
we’re back, well sorta
i’m not back to florida
heath’s not back to georgia
we’re just back, south of the border
down from the north like a mountain of sorts
that we now have endured to the ground where we’re born
and this route got us 14 hours or more through towns
and i sure ain’t been round here before
get me out of this corner of the map to the people who sent me
first day back and already less friendly
an american heir saying arrogant prayers
same face, but i feel a new character there
and i’m now in the league of the mentally and morally fatigued
and it dawns on me i’m honestly open to a relationship
like subconsciously i wanna be taken away from this
(when she falls asleep)
don’t wanna see the pad and pen
i just wanna see my fam and friends
(when she falls asleep)
but i’m not at the end
for better or worse i’ll be back again

[hook]
can i keep you?
can i keep you? keep you?
can i keep you?
can i keep you? keep you?

[verse 2: heir jordan]
lines on the map make all the difference
road signs recall the distance
familiar words, so i’m optimistic
(it’s all america to me)
at home in a state where i’ve never been
[?] let me in
maine is florida, maine is georgia
(it’s all america to me)
they measure the distance in miles here, and i feel better
ain’t seen your face in a while, dear, write me a letter
the trees look the same
the people look the same
such a subtle change, but i feel better
must’ve been something that i did wrong
but i can deal with that when i get home
i feel like i’m just about to resurface
it might be a while ’til i feel like a person again
(it’s all america to me)

[hook]

[verse 3: heath mcnease]
we’re cold
it got friendship, maine, friendship, maine, cold
it got cold
and it turned to a fever that never broke, i’m gone
alone, ’til she came out east in a broke down car that’s home
my own, my own little piece of a life that i never known, known
(when she falls asleep)
don’t wanna see the pad and pen
i just wanna see my fam and friends
(when she falls asleep)
but i’m not at the end
for better or worse i’ll be back again

[hook]

[verse 4: heath mcnease]
i knew her mom was an angel, but she looked like one, too
too soon, yes i’ll let go when the bell tolls all to soon, soon
she get to see the real me
she get to see the real me
’til the clock comes sooner than you think will you still need me when our two hands meet but
she get to see who i was
she get to see who i was
’til the clock comes sooner than we want will you still need me when our two hands touch but
(when you fall asleep)
(when you fall asleep)

[hook]
