There was a very sacred place back where I grew Between three old pine trees that nobody knew I'd close my eyes and pass the time like youngin's often do But now I'm long gone, completely ruined
Darlin' you and I were made for many different things To live and learn and lie and laugh, fight and dance and sing But our hearts have been so battered by the things that we have seen And I can feel it in the way you look at me
We could pick any old road and start again Hell, we could change our names and try to forget Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done But circumstances shot us down like September doves Circumstances shot us down like September doves
My grandmother's lullabies used to sing me to sleep I can't sleep nowadays without liquid relief Well if lullabies were whiskey then my Grandma's drinks were cheap I can't afford sleep anymore
And we were never made for love our souls are far too old But loneliness needs company and a lost dog needs a home So you will be the fire and I will be the coal Baby we can burn out of control
We could pick any old road and start again Hell, we could change our names and try to forget Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done But circumstances shot us down like September doves Circumstances shot us down like September doves
