Come on. I'd love to talk to you out side. In the open air, some where. To take it, too, and watch it go. Any where, in here. You never know. And I don't mean to chase you down.
Can you call it what you see when you're reaching for the light,. Found again before you leave, holding back enough to try,. Overheard talking down from somewhere, just above,.
Ours to never learn the beginning of it all,. Keeping you alone; almost-overheard voices that had gone. As far as they could go were ready to return,.
Tough is as she does. Won't you slump on over and stir my shuffle down?. For once, devotion is enough. But the walk you whittle, another dream, another drink.
Let's waste the night; pay the price and get out of here.. It's not enough, backing out just to disappear. Without a fight they'll never know we've won..
Ask her when you're upstairs later on. With her eyes bowing down and her last light gone. You looked up to her window from the backyard dusk,. Hired as a shot, lingered as a crush..
From the thumper to the drinker,. The cradle to the angel. I'll be looking over you. Pass me up or lay me down. Once I wanted an explanation. But now I'd settle for just a sound.
I got a drive-away car in Georgia. And baby boy, there's two lines in the road:. One to leave you lonely. And the other to leave me alone. To get down to the easy flow.
It was a chance you took: everything was good. Until you went back inside for a second look,. Holding out your hand, did you understand,. Crossing all of those lines and crawling back,.
Within, without. We must've been carried away. And where are we now?. Moving on just to take the time to begin. Somewhere within. . Again well below. Just getting by we already know.
Oh where you lay. Your head tonight. I'll roll away alone. And close on down. . Take up your wings. And fly back out. And we'll pretend. Forget we're dead.
I wrote it out in stones where the road divides.. I walked you home and the path was high.. Believe me, believer!. I've seen your run,. And I'll raze your faith until the vein is done and dry.
Another washout, brake lights showing. Probably gonna slow down, no way of knowing. Let's hear the outline, I see where it's going. I know where it came from, a bubble in the moment.
Once upon a blue thing or two. Eyes in sight, the moon confused. We heard the sparks fly and we watched their lies. Some died in retreat, some in jealousy.
The kitchen drawers were open. Hot water in the bath. And the phone call that you promised me. I'd given up on last. . I was only 22. All undone and overdue.
It?s a bruised and a fallen sky. Pressed all up against us. And it?s just as true, so far away. But I can be there by breakfast. . I just drive on through to you.
shades pulled down, is it ten or two. did you paint the town, was it red or blue. last night's face on your pillowcase. last call's fool laying next to you.
When Davey dropped dead the papers said he was a football hero. Kids all cried and the rumors died and before he was in the ground. Jimmy was up on the strip job, sucking another one down.
My life reminds me of everything I said it wouldn't be. It's kind of sad to believe shooting for perfection. Would backfire on me. . Only one thing left to try.
i read all the books, i bought a sexy nightgown. i fed your baby, i whittled all our debt down. and you were drunk. . i did your dishes, i never let myself go.
