about

I've been thinking about finally taking a break lately, but I didn't realize how close I was to inadvertently giving myself the opportunity, when I closed my eyes for a little nap earlier tonight! Just made the cut. I actually like this song better than anything I've done for quite a while, but unfortunately, this rushed and sleep-infused demo doesn't really do it justice. Still, there may be a future for this one ...

lyrics

thought I was doing the right thing
thought I could keep you from harm
thought I could keep you forever
I should’ve hear the alarms

I don’t suppose you’d remember
those memories they haunt me tonight
we sat on a bench outside Roux House
bathed in the gold marquee's light

you told me you’d never been partial
to my kind of trifling schemes
but I dreamed that some day you would love me
and tonight I’m still dreaming that dream

I ain’t Never felt so lost, so deep
when I turned that rusty key
and I knew that that angry old river
gone and washed it all out to sea
you have honored your side of the bargain
as faithful as you ought to be
now there’s nothing left standing between us
but this boxful of broken debris

I bought you a house in Glen Oaks
I bought you a red Cadillac
I bought you with all of my money
now there’s nothing left holding you back

I guess that you never did love me
seems like there’s always a fight
but a new dining room and a big swimming pool
got you to sleep every night

so go see your folks up in Natchez
if you can find your own way
there’s a man up the street with a pontoon boat
you might make it in a couple of days

I ain’t never felt so lost, so deep
when I turned that rusty key
and I knew that that angry old river
gone and washed it all out to sea
you have honored your side of the bargain
as faithful as you ought be
now there’s nothing left standing between us
but this boxful of broken debris
