[Verse 1] Rain on the tin roof Oil on the floor Cinderblock shadows By the warped back door A busted red mower A bike with one wheel Paint cans stacked crooked Like they kept a secret sealed [Pre-Chorus] We were young in there With our hands all black You said, "don't let this place Turn its face to back" [Chorus] Old garage, old garage Hold that spell, hold that spark Old garage, old garage We were loud in the dark (Old garage) (hold that spark) [Verse 2] Dad's hammer on a nail Mom's box of jars A screen door banging From the yard to the stars You carved your name in dust I traced it twice We laughed at the echo Like it owed us a life [Pre-Chorus] Now the hinges moan And the rafters sag But I still hear us In the oil-stain rag [Chorus] Old garage, old garage Hold that spell, hold that spark Old garage, old garage We were loud in the dark (Old garage) (hold that spark) [Bridge] If I close my eyes I can see that floor Two kids and a summer And a rusted screen door Let the old paint peel Let the years roll by Some doors stay open Even when they die [Chorus] Old garage, old garage Hold that spell, hold that spark Old garage, old garage We were loud in the dark (Old garage) (hold that spark) [Outro] Rain on the tin roof Oil on the floor Old garage I still come back for more
