lyrics

You held us in your live oak arms
We bore your marks of seashell charms
Your fields aglow where we would run
Til fire and lightning took your young

Beer went down warm and fast
On the boardwalk bench before class
Laughing, spinning, falling numb
When fire and lightning took your young

I turned my back
But you are my home
You gave me some slack
And I never let you go

Memories ride your swell and breeze
To kiss our cheeks and buckled knees
Bound for life beneath the sun
Where fire and lightning took your young
