The Holy Smokes - Lips Shut Tight

It was sunny when I asked you to go
On a hike, along a river that I used to know
But it was hard to get your boots on
The weather changed when we got a move on

As the rain came tumbling down
I saw your pretty grin turn into an earnest frown
When I asked you what's the matter
You were quiet between the pitter-patter

Well, you're turning into your mother with your lips shut tight
And you're beautiful, lord I know it but it's not alright
But it's gonna be, yeah it's gonna be, I know I'm not without some blame
Ooh it's gonna be, and it's gonna be, I only hope you feel the same, only hope you feel the same

When we came across the biggest fork
We got stuck, a whole night going back and forth
We couldn't see each other's visions
And we couldn't make any decisions

So we camped along that barren road
And we hoped to get better to find our way home
Despite the moves we weren't making
Like another long summer vacation

Well, you're turning into your mother with your lips shut tight
And you're beautiful, lord I know it but it's not alright
But it's gonna be, and it's gonna be, I know I'm not without some blame
But it's gonna be, and it's gonna be, I only hope you feel the same

We tossed and turned, hoped for the best
We waited with a patient breath
The fire was out before we left
And you got cold but wouldn't let me know

With your lips shut tight (You're turning into your mother)
With your lips shut tight (You're beautiful lord I know it)
With your lips shut tight (You're turning into your mother)
With your lips shut tight
