September Doves |
| There was a very sacred place back where I grew |
| Between three old pine trees that nobody knew |
| I’d close my eyes and pass the time like youngin’s often do |
| But now I’m long gone, completely ruined |
| Darlin' you and I were made for many different things |
| To live and learn and lie and laugh, fight and dance and sing |
| But our hearts have been so battered by the things that we have seen |
| And I can feel it in the way you look at me |
| We could pick any old road and start again |
| Hell, we could change our names and try to forget |
| Lord knows I’ll be sorry when it’s done |
| But circumstances shot us down like September doves |
| Circumstances shot us down like September doves |
| My grandmother’s lullabies used to sing me to sleep |
| I can’t sleep nowadays without liquid relief |
| Well if lullabies were whiskey then my Grandma’s drinks were cheap |
| I can’t afford sleep anymore |
| And we were never made for love our souls are far too old |
| But loneliness needs company and a lost dog needs a home |
| So you will be the fire and I will be the coal |
| Baby we can burn out of control |
| We could pick any old road and start again |
| Hell, we could change our names and try to forget |
| Lord knows I’ll be sorry when it’s done |
| But circumstances shot us down like September doves |
| Circumstances shot us down like September doves |
| We could pick any old road and start again |
| Hell, we could change our names and try to forget |
| Lord knows I’ll be sorry when it’s done |
| But circumstances shot us down like September doves |
| Circumstances shot us down like September doves |
