Down Under

(album: The Bible & The Bottle - 2008)

It's Friday night and I'm sitting here
Info-mercial and a lukewarm beer
Through the window the red taillights
Rage a war on the October sky

And I know she's gone
Yeah I know she ain't looking back
Yes I know that she loves me
And I'd do anything, oh Lord, to keep her here

It's 3 A.M. and I grab my keys
I drive around while my sinner sleeps
Yellow lines perforate my mind
Seems like all I'm doing is wasting time

Well I know she's gone
Yeah I know she ain't looking back
Yes I know that she loves me
And I'd do anything, oh Lord, to keep her here

Her bags are packed and her luggage checked
And I'm burning out like her cigarette
She says she'll call, she says she''ll write
But all that means is I'm alone again tonight

And I know she's gone
Yeah I know she ain't looking back
Yes I know that she loves me
And I'd do anything, oh Lord, to keep her here
I'll keep her here, keep her here
I'll keep her here, I'll keep her here
Keep her here, I'll keep her here
