I kissed the bottle

I should’ve been kissing you

You wake up to an empty night

With tears for two

I just wanna write one perfect line

Something we can all hide behind

One for lovers, one for the losers, one for the girl

Well you might be getting me drunk
But this conversation sucks
And for some inexplicible reason
You thought that we were going to go home and fuck

Say you drive a Chevy Say you drive a Ford

You say you drive around the town till you just get bored

Then you change your mind For something else to do

And your heart gets bored with your mind and it changes you

She saved enough to get back home

When spring replaced the winter

But her dreams were denied

Her pa had died

The word come down from spencer

Can’t recall the call letters

Steel guitar and settle down

Catching an all-night station somewhere in Louisiana

It sounds like 1963, but for now it sounds like heaven

I keep having dreams of things I need to do

Of waking up and not following through

It feels like I haven’t slept at all

When I wake to her silence and shes facing the wall

Don’t know why but the one I love left me

Left me lonely and cold and so weak

And I need someone’s arms to hold me

Till I’m strong enough to get back on my feet

I worked in your orchards of peaches and prune

I slept on the ground in the light of the moon

On the edge of the city you’ll see us and then

We come with the dust and we go with the wind

People say that you were meant for me

I nod my head, they think that I agree

But they’ll never know the hurt it takes to be
