Buffalo Tom - Your Stripes Lyrics

It was a time so full
And as rich as me and you
In a case of deja vu
I forgot that I knew you
Every day was like a grape
Or as rich as a chocolate cake
And I took all I could take
And laid claim to what I'd could stake

Oh I loved you in your stripes
Oh you looked so good in stripes
But they never stay the same
They just change from day to day
But they never look the same
They just change from day to day

And I'm truly scarred for life
We glow like fireflies
Lost in the lows of nights and
Forgetting family fights

And at night the starlight gleams
This pillow's made for dreams
You drift away it seems
Into soft flannel dreams

Oh I loved you in your stripes
Oh you looked so good in stripes
But they never look the same
They just change from day to day
But they never look the same
They just change from day to day

They all look the same
They all look the same

Oh I loved you in your stripes
Oh you looked so good in stripes
But they never look the same
They just change from day to day
But they never look the same
They just change from day to day
They never look the same
They just change from day to day
They never look the same
They just change from day to day
