Lyrics for Michael & Peter

Michael is you, he has your face, he still has your eyes Remember, Peter is me, 'cept when he smiles And if you look at them both for a while You can see they are you, they are me This spring we had some heavy rain, my summer it was dry again The roses that we planted last fall climb the wall I think the house could use some paint, you know your mother's such a saint She takes the boys whenever she can, she sure needs a man All those years I've worked for Santa Fe, never ever missed a single day Just one more without a raise in pay, and I'm leavin' And the air still has a country smell, and everyone is looking well As far as anyone can tell, the sun will rise tomorrow You'll never believe how much they're growin' John Henry came to cut the lawn, again he asked me where you'd gone Can't tell you all the times he's been told, but he's so old Guess that's all the news I've got today, least that's all the news that I can say Maybe soon the words will come my way tomorrow And the air still has a country smell, and everyone is looking well As far as anyone can tell, the sun will rise tomorrow You'll never believe how much they're growin' You'll never believe how much they're growin'...
