Lyrics
0:24Johnny’s on the back porch drinking red wine
0:29He knows that it could be the very last time
0:33He raises the glass up to his lips and wonders
0:43How could a boy from a little bay town
0:47Grow up to be a man, fly the whole world round
0:52Then end back up on the same damn ground he started
1:04You might not get what you pay for
1:09You know that nothing’s for sure
1:13And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness
1:32Lately he’s been thinking ‘bout the meaning of time
1:36The small amount we’re given must be some sort of crime
1:41Yet the little we have feels like too much most of the time
1:51He takes another sip of that blood red wine
1:55Just waiting on the stars that will never align
2:00A little luck, a little love, a little light and you’ll be doing just fine
2:12But you might not get what you pay for
2:16You know that nothing’s for sure
2:21And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness
2:36So open up your heart
2:40Take it out, and put it back in
2:45Signs are all around you
2:51Let it begin
3:00You might not get what you pay for
3:05You know that nothing’s for sure
3:10And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness
3:20You might not get what you pay for
3:24You know that nothing’s for sure
3:29And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness
Johnny’s on the back porch drinking red wine He knows that it could be the very last time He raises the glass up to his lips and wonders How could a boy from a little bay town Grow up to be a man, fly the whole world round Then end back up on the same damn ground he started You might not get what you pay for You know that nothing’s for sure And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness Lately he’s been thinking ‘bout the meaning of time The small amount we’re given must be some sort of crime Yet the little we have feels like too much most of the time He takes another sip of that blood red wine Just waiting on the stars that will never align A little luck, a little love, a little light and you’ll be doing just fine But you might not get what you pay for You know that nothing’s for sure And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness So open up your heart Take it out, and put it back in Signs are all around you Let it begin You might not get what you pay for You know that nothing’s for sure And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness You might not get what you pay for You know that nothing’s for sure And an open heart looks a lot like the wilderness
