23 Years Ago |
| 23 years ago |
| A boy wrecked his life |
| 23 years ago |
| On a warm Texas night |
| Said not a word |
| All night in the club |
| 'Til closing time |
| As I was headed for the door |
| Said, «You comin' or what?» |
| You slipped your hand in mine |
| Took me to your place |
| I said, «I'm in love with somebody |
| That I cannot place but that’s the way it goes, honey» |
| Between you and me and her, there’s been many |
| Many times our paths crossed, our paths stayed lost |
| If anything, it’s deeper and deeper and deep |
| 23 hours ago you called my phone |
| You say «Get your ass down here so we can talk» |
| 23 years ago |
| I would’ve run every mile |
| But I called you in the morning |
| Said, «Maybe this ain’t the right thing to do» |
| And I spend the afternoon in tears |
| 23 years ago |
| A boy wrecked your life |
| 23 years ago |
| On a hot Texas night |
| Our paths cross again and again |
| Sometimes five years in between… ten |
| There’s one thing that goes unsaid |
| Now I’ll say it out loud |
| Maybe you were the one I should’ve holded on to |
| Baby you was the one I should’ve held to |
| I’ve been through hell too |
| Ooo maybe, baby, baby |
| 23 years ago |
| A boy wrecks his life |
| 23 years ago |
| On a warm Texas night |
| Interlude #1 |
| No jingle in his pockets |
| (?) in the wall |
| Father went to end |
| Knockin' on heaven’s door |
| Fell in love with a dyke |
| Married a friend |
| Spent half his life wondering if it would end… it would end |
