Viewing lyrics for Down in Austin by Derik Kroeze.

Frost on cars, outside shady bars
Breathing in cold air under lonely stars
And I'm fading, fading once again

And the words from your mouth
Remind me every single day that I should be south
Down in Austin in a rock and roll band

I'll be gone
Before the snow melts
I'll be gone
Before you open your eyes

Remember calls until 3?
You say it's been too long and I disagree
'Cause now I'm different, and you're older too

And the words from your lips
Remind me every single day I'm just working for tips in Cleveland
And I'm sick of it

I'll be gone
Before the snow melts
I'll be gone
Before you open your eyes

Falling snow, here we go
My cars stuck again and I need a tow
Out of this place, away from all of you

Heading now, on my own
I'll find the sun or I'll die in the storm
I guess that's just how I was born
