I took the time to write to my old friend. I walked across that burning bridge. I mailed my letter off to Dallas but. Her reply came from Anchorage, Alaska.
Im putting lipstick on my face. Would have never chosen this shade of red. Ive always thought that I looked best in pink instead. And I dont like my hair this long.
A child like grace. I wish you could've seen her face. How bright that sunflower shone. . With a child like grace. Running all around the place. It should be said, "My, how you've grown".
Sometimes this time of year. I get a little moody. Pour some sweet red wine to ease my mind. And i close my eyes and wonder. through old memories. And everytime I do.
It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam. And this is how I know. Not by the voice on my portable radio. The batteries are old. . It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam. And this is how I know.
theres a hurricane off the coast of carolina tonight. We got a new world full of strangers spoilin for a fight. Cause theres gonna be poverty, drugs, guns and money forever.
Consecrate your soul. Or there's gonna be hell to pay. You've got them where they live. Come the Judgment Day. . Father, forgive our sins. Mother, forgive us too.
I woke up without that empty feeling. And it stayed away all afternoon. Had dinner with some of my old friends this evening. And never once mentioned you.
Upshur County's drier than an empty bottle. Since the Mormon's come to town. And to run out of beer means a run to Gladewater. Highway 79 thirty miles on down.
The sun doesnt rise up. It never goes down. Thats just how it looks as the world spins around. Its hard to believe it. But sadly Im told. Some stars that I see now.
Well, she's a rocker, she take after me. She's a roller, rollin' a the family. She's a rock 'n roll baby, a real gone twister. . But I'm tellin' you mister, don't you mess around.
I didnt know you'd find a love so soon. God, look at you. You've got a glow. You're lighting up this room. With your someone new. And hurts so much. Its tearing my heart in two.
My heart feels like a racecar. I wanna see how far this thing can go. Take every curve wide open. Baby I know we're on the right road. A mile this side of forever.
I've got ripped up jeans and rawhide boots. Stiletto heels and a thousand moods. Led home in my pickup. For somebody's stretch limo. . In the southern sun I've been known to faint.
You, you knew how to soothe me. Like the sound of rain on a sleepy afternoon. You made me a believer. That this love was worth falling into. It was good for a while.
I am as guarded as Alcatraz when I want to be. Never been disarmed by boyish charm. So darlin', you tell me, why do I throw down my weapons. When you smile so harmlessly?.
If all my good fortune ended. If my whole world came tumbling down. If suddenly everything I'm sure of. Came crashing to the ground. If all of my worst fears came true.
Yeah. . Just look at him laughing out loud. Life of the party. And look at me trying to be strong. Fighting the tears. . How can he just sit there acting.
There's a half dressed mama running through the front yard. Waving a briefcase a hollerin'. There's mailman stumbling to his truck. With a dog on his leg that sure could use a collar and.
You said no but my heart heard yes. I couldn't face the truth so I kept on lying. I love you but you don't love back. I couldn't deal with that so I kept on trying.
