Hey ol' nightwind it's good to hear from you again. You say you're only just passing through. You know what to say if you're blowing that way. I'd be so much obliged to you.
Daddy took my sister's bike. Before I knew it, it was like. He bought it just for me down at the store. And mama bought a Goodwill gown. Added lace and beads she found.
Never again, again.. Once more I'll let you back in. I know how the story ends. But I can't help myself. You'll break my heart I know. Through my tears I watch you go.
How can I make you believe. How happy I am when you're with me. I cross my heart, I'm telling the truth. A promise is a promise, so I promise you. . I'll never let go of your hand.
I've got a two room flat with a view of the bridge. That crosses over into Arkansas. It's pretty to see all lit up at night. Tips are good, waitin' tables at a downtown restaurant.
Counted the stars on the Fourth of July. Wishing we were rockets bursting in the sky. Talking about redemption and leaving things behind. As the sun sank west of the Mendocino County line.
Lord, I hope this day is good. I'm feeling empty and misunderstood. I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should. But Lord I hope this day is good. . Lord, have You forgotten me?.
Make memories with me. Make memories with me. Forget the one who might have been. And the one who used to be. . Darlin' I've got love. And you've got love.
How can you ask me how have I been?. I think you should know well the shape that I'm in. You tell me you wonder if I was okay. Well that's a damn fool thing to say.
Last night, I went out, walkin'.. I could not believe my eyes. I could tell that she wasn't some stranger;. You held her a little too tight.. My heart stopped like it hit a freight train.
Oh, the weather outside is frightful. But the fire is so delightful. And since we've no place to go. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. . It doesn't show signs of stopping.
Baby, it's like dreaming. When your wide awake. Surrender. . Baby would you. Would you like to go on a. Paradise with me?. Let me kiss you. (Let me kiss you).
Like an old abandoned ferris wheel. Time for me is standin' still. And it's you and me in mid July. Underneath the midway lights. And all our friends are standing there.
I recognized your number,. It's burned into my brain,. Felt my heart beating faster,. Every time it rang.. Some things never change,. That's why I didn't answer..
There's a picture that I carry. One we made some time ago. When they ask who's in the picture with me. I say just someone I used to know. . Just someone, I used to spend some time with.
If houses tell stories. I wonder. About these walls of yours and mine. They could repeat any number. Of things. They've heard and seen in their time. .
Well, I'm sure Fort Worth has seen it's share of heartached. But it's plain to see your heart's not broken now. You're in love with someone new and up on top of the world.
I heard he was gonna marry some girl from Denver. Then my sister came over, had the Sunday paper with her. There was the girl on the social page. Lookin' in love and all engaged.
It used to be red wine there in room 3-2-9. Over the river where we weren't well-known. Now it's two coffees then off to the office. Then back in the driveway and sittin' at home.
I was a long lost soul. I was a burnt out case. I felt my heart grow old. I wore a stranger?s face. . I built a wall so high. I built a gulf so wide. I saw my life go by.
