The hurricane party's windin' down. And we're all waitin' for the end. And I don't want another drink. I only want that last one again. . He gave me such a fine glow, smokin' slow.
The ladies began to loose their smile. Sat on their porches and watched her walk her first long mile. tight long jeans and short blond hair. Every man couldn't help but stare.
Been over the river and I've been over the sea. Called on a woman who wouldn't have me. Tell me how long have I got to wait. Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate.
She's got a heart. She's got a heart like Memphis. . She's Georgia honeysuckle sweet. Smiles at strangers on the street. Remembers everybody's name. Calls her momma every day.
Pure as a kiss from the lips of God. A red rose bloomin out a canyon rock. Through a hole in the cloud she fell one day. Left her home on high so far away.
I've been thinkin about the things she said. How I'm dealing with deep, dark stuff. I've been facing the voices in my head. Rising up when the road gets rough.
I have failed and I have fallen, cried till I was bawling. Been down so low my face was on the tiles. Where the cold against my lips, hollow like your kiss.
