lyrics

Sit inside my room and watch world go by
Stink of cigarettes and whiskey Rockin Rye
Mighty lonely in the stillness of my mind
I’d love another try,
With you

I should clean the mess it’s gotten out of hand
Errant cellophanes and smokes left where they land
Empty bottles clinking tempo for the band
I’d cross the burning sands
To you

I’ve been here before
Wearing grooves in hardwood floors
Empty room and open drawers
Laying bare their stores
For you

Still, it’s kinda early, only half past noon
Cross the wilderness, the frontier of my room
Remember you would hum those Nighthawk diner tunes
Won’t be back so soon
Will you

Maybe I’ll break free of my downy refuge
Brave the ruins, navigate piles of refuse
Maybe bob for apples in a tub of booze
Ain’t got much to lose
But you

I’ve been here before
Wearing grooves in hardwood floors
Empty room and open drawers
Laying bare their stores
For you

Left your things they’ve got their own real special pile
I ain’t looked through them in quite a little while
Found your ring and broken photos of your smile
I left them there to lie
For you
