|
| [00:42.520] |
She lifts her skirt up to her knees |
| [00:45.830] |
Walks through the garden of roses with her bare feet laughing |
| [00:54.130] |
I never learned to count my blessings |
| [00:57.620] |
I choose instead to dwell in my disasters |
| [01:06.510] |
I walk on down the hill |
| [01:09.200] |
Through grass grown tall and brown |
| [01:12.440] |
And still it's hard somehow to let go of my pain |
| [01:18.760] |
On past the busted back and |
| [01:21.590] |
Of that old and rusted Cadillac |
| [01:24.110] |
That sinks into this field collecting rain |
| [01:29.830] |
Will I always feel this way? |
| [01:41.410] |
So empty, so estranged |
| [01:58.870] |
Of these cutthroat busted sunsets |
| [02:02.260] |
These cold and damp white mornings I have grown weary |
| [02:10.250] |
If through my cracked and dusty dime store lips |
| [02:14.210] |
I spoke these words out loud would no one hear me |
| [02:22.340] |
Lay your blouse across the chair |
| [02:25.930] |
Let fall the flowers from your hair |
| [02:28.710] |
And kiss me with that country mouth so plain |
| [02:34.690] |
Outside the rain is tapping on the leaves |
| [02:38.630] |
To me it sounds like they're applauding us |
| [02:42.330] |
The quiet love we make |
| [02:46.420] |
Will I always feel this way? |
| [02:58.810] |
So empty, so estranged |
| [03:45.550] |
Well I looked my demons in the eyes |
| [03:48.980] |
Laid bare my chest said do your best destroy me |
| [03:57.190] |
See I've been to hell and back so many times |
| [04:01.530] |
I must admit you kinda bore me |
| [04:09.420] |
There's a lot of things that can kill a man |
| [04:12.510] |
There's a lot of ways to die |
| [04:15.090] |
Yes and some already dead who walk beside me |
| [04:21.310] |
There's a lot of things I don't understand |
| [04:24.140] |
Why so many people lie |
| [04:26.950] |
Well it's the hurt I hide that fuels the fire inside me |
| [04:33.330] |
Will I always feel this way? |
| [04:45.020] |
So empty, so estranged |
