Jenny Lake

[Verse 1]
Two coves east of Pomegranate Cave
On the banks of Jenny Lake
There’s a moment I can’t shake
Wear it round my neck 'til it breaks

All my life I rushed to this part
Can’t slow the damned thing down once it starts
I’ll grow up but I don’t want to

[Refrain]
Take me back to Jenny Lake with you

[Verse 2]
For the first time in a while
I recognized myself in your smile
Looking up at the endless sky
Sun gleaming in your tiger eye

Losing sleep in the silver predawn
One more night bird singing his song
Pull the reins as hard as I can

[Refrain]
Take me back to Jenny Lake with you

[Verse 3]
I remember slower days
Humid air of Pomegranate Cave
Tennis courts in the gentle rain
Anything to help me stay

We’ll step on into tomorrow
Brace ourselves for the common unknown
Count the gold and carry on, oh

[Refrain]
Take me back to Jenny Lake with you
Take me back to Jenny Lake with you
Take me back to Jenny Lake with you
