Lily

(альбом: Door Without A Screen - 2013)

I've never been one for cigarette smoke
But my nerves are shot, I need an antidote
My mouth is dry like the summer in the south
She's sticking to her guns and I'm down and out

Goodbye Lily, I'm gone for good
Packed up my things like I said I would
The road is dark and I can barely see
Goodbye Lily, no more leaving me

Well she called me up last night at 3
She said it hurts like hell being left by me
My love for her was like aged alcohol
Yeah, the older it grew the harder I'd fall

Goodbye Lily, I'm gone for good
Packed up my things like I said I would
The road is dark and I can barely see
Goodbye Lily, no more leaving me

Well I've tossed and I've turned
I've broken down but I've learned

I swerved off the road trying to catch my breath
Cause I've been running on fumes and running half dead
It's nothing new, rather old instead
Cause running from you is like running from death

Goodbye Lily, I'm gone for good
Packed up my things like I said I would
The road is dark and I can barely see
Goodbye Lily, no more leaving me

Baby goodbye, no more leaving me
Baby goodbye, no more leaving me
Say goodbye, say goodbye...

I've never been one for cigarette smoke
But my nerves are shot, I need an antidote
