And So We Are

(album: Leave The Light On - 2003)

There was dust in the wind and some straight cool gin
All the horses ran ran ran beside you
There was truth in a friend an new suit's on the men
All the choices planned planned to guide you

And so we are
So we'll be
As so we were
Just you and me

I know that whiskey and wine numb my scared insides
Yes I run run run trying to break free
It's a beat up town when the holy church was torn down
I know that corner bar ain't never ever gonna save me

And so we are
So we'll be
As so we were
Just you and me
I'll beg to own
A soul to take
Something better than me
That's gold and brave

Yes the wheels made kind of those thoughts
In my mind as we rolled rolled rolled off to China
Anywhere but here yes I screamed so clear
As we pulled pulled back into the diner

And so we are
So we'll be
As so we were
Just you and me
I'll fantasize about being new
About being free
And looking good to you

I'll beg to own a soul to take
Something better than me
That's gold and brave
