| Day after new years and I’d had a few beers
|
| Maybe I was looking for something to do
|
| At the Silver Dollar the all-girl band hollered
|
| And I stood a bit taller ‘cause I was standing next to you
|
| It felt like I knew you, it felt like you knew me too
|
| We had it locked up threw away the key
|
| But now this cloud it ain’t lifting and I feel like I’m drifting
|
| Down a river of your tears and out into the sea
|
| And it leaves me in a rough place
|
| You with the long face
|
| Me with the disgrace of leaving you alone
|
| And even if I miss you, you know I can’t kiss you
|
| Or give you a tissue or make it go away
|
| Now it’s almost two years later feeling like a failure
|
| Feeling like a man that I don’t wanna be
|
| And from sunny September to this dismal November
|
| It’s been a challenge to remember where I left my dignity
|
| And it leaves me in a rough place
|
| You with the long face
|
| Me with the disgrace of leaving you alone
|
| And even if I miss you, you know I can’t kiss you
|
| Or give you a tissue or make it go away |
