Written by Mary Gauthier and Dale Keys. . Silly me, what was I thinking. I coulda sworn you still loved me. But I'm a fool born to chase rainbows. I could never hold you to what you said with your eyes.
I hated high school, I prayed it would end. The jocks and their girls, it was their world, I didn't fit in. Mama said, "Baby, it's the best school that money can buy.
Foundling, a foundling. Looking for home. Wanders through darkness. And travels alone. . Related. . Naughty & Nice Christmas Songs. . 23 Of The Most Heartbreaking Christmas Songs Ever.
(Mary Gauthier/Crit Harmon). . Davey stole a Christmas tree from K-Mart last night. red ribbons and silver bells, angels dressed in white. He tied, it to the bridge rail so passing cars would see.
(Mary Gauthier/Keri Powers). . He's lying on the double bed acting self-assured. In his T-shirt ana his underwear he's barely said a word. She pours a cup of coffee lights the day's first cigarette.
This is not my street. This is not my house. That is not my bed. This is not my town. Another day another night. Another night another day. I wanna go home.
Clouds are spreading like bruises on the evening sky. I walk the streets alone again tonight. It starts to rain still I search each passing face. Blood is blood and blood don't wash away.
Well, the grasses are swaying, sun's going down. Music is playing, you? re weaving through town. Pull into the drive way, toss it in park. . You stare out of the windshield, out into the world.
Got me an apartment on the East Side. 1411 13th Street. I walk on the tracks by the Cumberland River. Over the bridge past lovers leap. . I'm holding on.
I shook my fist at my father's rage. I cursed my mother's sadess. Whatever home I tried to call my own. Washed in to that river of madmness. . The raging surge the stagnant mire.

Mary Gauthier. . I felt the flames on my face. when I found the nerve to meet your eyes, so green. I stumbled towards your elegance. I tumbled, wide awake into a dream.
There's knots in your stomach. Tightness in my throat. Half the things we say these days. Get hurled back as a quote. . We came together easily. But something has gone wrong.
The children are crying, they never got their supper. Where would you run to in the darkness of the night?. Even shadows fear to wander. They gather 'round me in the candlelight.
My silence betrays me. Lets the demons take a hold. The truth always saves me. When there? s nowhere else to go. . When you flirt with the shadows. Darkness snakes under your skin.
Broken on the inside, that? s what I used to say. Then I? d pack my bags, raise a white flag, drive away. I thought that? s what made me strong. But I was young, I was wrong.
Tell me that you love me one more time. Before you leave, before you leave. Wrap your arms around me hold me tight. Before you leave, before you leave.
