Normal Life Lyrics & mp3 - July For Kings

I stood under Ohio's skies
I could see the open fields for miles
I thought what the hell am I doing back here again
But now I'm trying to reassemble the things I kept
And the pictures fade, but I hope to resurrect
The things that kept me sane back then

In the backyard
Playing on the swing set
Dark green shoes off
You can get your feet wet
Mom and Dad sat quiet in the sun room
Sun down, big moon, big sky

I just want to live a normal life
Get a fast car and a pretty wife
We could have children of our own
Settle down here until they're grown
We could buy a house out on the beach
And just die there, out of reach
Do you want to live, do you want to live
Do you want to live a normal life with me
Yeah, a normal life with me

For years I cursed these deadend streets
Nowhere to go, no one to meet
We only talked about the crazy woman down the road
Yeah, but everything makes much more sense now
Someday I'll have my own house
I'll make enough to make it easier to pay the phone bill

In the backyard
Playing on the swing set
Dark green shoes off
You can get your feet wet
My wife and I sit quiet in the sun room
Sun down, big moon, big sky

I just want to live a normal life
Get a fast car and a pretty wife
We could have children of our own
Settle down here until they're grown
We could buy a house out on the beach
And just die there, out of reach
Do you want to live, do you want to live
Do you want to live a normal life

I'll watch the kids 'til you get home
4:58 and you're on the phone
Coming back from work on Friday
Wide awake in the American dream
I'll make the bed, you'll feed the cat
Could it really be as simple as that

Do you want to live, do you want to live
Do you want to live a normal life with me
Do you want to live a normal life with me

I just want to live a normal life
Get a fast car and a pretty wife
We could have children of our own
And settle down here until they're grown

I just want to live a normal life
Get a fast car and a pretty wife
We could have children of our own
And settle down here until they're grown
We could buy a house out on the beach
And just die there, out of reach
Do you want to live, do you want to live
Do you want to live a normal life
Do you want to live, do you want to live
Do you want to live a normal life
Do you want to live, do you want to live
Do you want to live a normal life with me
