Alone on the front porch, pushing an empty swing The cars slipping by don't mean a thing Some are dark, some are blue, and all are shades of you In this yard, where loneliness is king
I can remember the beauty in my yard Now its knee high grass and broken down old cars If you were here, I'd cut the grass, then we'd walk the railroad tracks Guess we all learn that all things must pass
The empty swing comes swinging up towards my face But I can't forget the day you left this place When the rain washed up my face I was still crying at your grave With yearly winds your name blows away
Alone, alone, alone I will not die alone Your bones in the earth are your thoughts in my mind Going nowhere while traveling in time
When we scattered his remains in the lake A violent wind rose up, blowing ash in your face Your father may have passed, but it felt great to hear you laugh I swore I'd marry you on that day
I was told you could hear them all through the town I couldn't take my eyes off your wedding gown I was distracted, they could tell, but at least they heard the bells Couldn't question the sincerity of our vows
The flooring mill may have bought us our home But I worked my aging fingers to the bone Work only effected me, you looked 16 at 33 When I found you lying on the floor
Alone, alone, alone I will not die alone Your bones in the earth are your thoughts in my mind Going nowhere while traveling in timeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
