new song lyrics:
Her swollen red eyes tell of her pain
As she says “don’t leave me again”
Piercing to go, more hurtful to stay
Waiting for jewels, a glimmer of proof
Another place, a feeling that’s new
She’s taken her step, but my feet won’t move
Give me an hour or two
And wait for me by the phone
If you don’t hear from me
I’ll stay alone but
I want you to stay with me forever, but not today
I want you to wait for me grasping onto to “someday”
I want you to pray for me mindful of who I am
I want you to love me since I’ve drawn the line, I’m still a broken man
Five rain soaked nights have found me alive
“How is it in Tennessee tonight?”
I’m wanting to go, but know I must stay
This shivering town turns bitterly cold
Distance fully feels so alone
Drive back down that road, and have no delay
I’ll stare out this clouded glass
The outside is shimmering gray
Reside here unchanged until
I’m ready to fall down again and I…
