I should have known that you were trouble when. I heard the words my sister said. she told me that you were spoiled - rotten to the bone. I suppose that I was blind.
She cries just a little when she sees him walk away. After all she can't see it any other way. And it's hard when you feel like there's nothing left to lose.
Pine trees seem to say "Where's Ben Black Elk Today?". Didn't he used to sit here with a smile, take his picture with a child. While all the while you stole his land.
So long fellas, I gotta go. Told her I wasn't gonna be, but an hour or so. I know she's bound to worry, 'bout me and that old car. . It's not that she don't trust me,.
I was comin' off of a heartache. Addin' up all my mistake you know how it is. An' I was beatin' up myself up real good. Over all those shoulda coulds but never dids.
There's a rainbow painted on a sky of denim blue. the sign says wichita falls texas twenty two. heat rising off the highway reminds me of that hot mid summer day.
I remember Sunday mornings, walking on the beach. And that place we'd stop for breakfast with the old red vinyl seats. The hours of the tide chart. The way the sunlight danced upon your face.
Today I started loving you again. I'm right back where I've really always been. I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend. And then today, I started loving you again.
He's three-feet tall and four years old. An' still believes that I can do no wrong. When I get home at five o'clock. He's waitin' with that Cowboys jersey on.
You make my heart beat too fast. You make me want this to last. You make me spend all my money. Oh I think I love you honey. . You make me think I could miss you.
Wallflower, wallflower. Won't you dance with me?. I'm sad and lonely too. Wallflower, wallflower. Won't you dance with me?. I'm fallin' in love with you.
Kiss me each morning for a million years. Hold me each evening by your side. Tell me you love me for a million years. Then if it don't work out. If it don't work out.
I got a hole in my pocket. I got a tear in my heart. I got a door I can't unlock it. I live on shadows in the dark. . I hear the sound of a heartbeat.
Misty sunrise in my hometown. Rows of cotton bout knee high. Mrs. Baker down the dirt road. Still got clothes out on the line. Erwin Nichols there with Judge Lee.
She is smiling. Then she takes your hand. And with a kiss she lies. That's just how she cries. . She is dancing. Up above a flame. And without wings she flies.
I heard that warnin' whistle blowin'. I knew that train was comin' fast. The sound of the wheels was hypnotisin'. I could not move from it's path. I just stood there, glued to the tracks.
Sometimes I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders. And it brings me to my knees. Sometimes, I feel as though the things I know I can't control.
By the banks of the river, where the willows hang down,. And the wild birds a'warble with a low moaning sound,. Down in the hollow where the water runs cold,.
Just south of town 'bout a half mile down past Cemetary Ridge. Out behind the levy where the moss grows heavy there's a one lane wooden bridge. That leads to a backwoods beer joint bar they call the Loaded Dice.
Seventeen years, how could we know?. And thirteen years to make a flower grow. Tears that fell from your eyes. Were the one's heaven cries. For the children left to walk alone.
