Empty blue shoes
|
And empty brown bottles
|
It's the VW blues
|
Bare feet to the floor
|
|
You just might die
|
When you make colorado
|
And the plaines lie behind you
|
Sweet Texas behind you
|
|
And your mother won't hold
|
You forever
|
And forever won't hold you for long
|
And that girl with the face of
|
An angel
|
She's the girl with the face that's
|
Long gone
|
|
Now those empty blue shoes
|
They sit by the highway
|
And those VW blues
|
They saw 'em pulling away
|
|
You know she kissed me goodbye
|
The last time I saw her
|
But what she intended
|
She never would say
|
|
And you lover won't hold you
|
Forever
|
And forever won't hold you for long
|
And that girl with the face of
|
An angel
|
She's the girl with the face that's
|
Long gone
|
