well the suns too bright
|
and the mountains are way too far
|
and there is no where in town i can get to in my broken car
|
i've got no where to go but to sleep
|
i would shut my eyes
|
but i've got promise to keep
|
well i can't go crazy
|
and i cannot get sane
|
and i don't want to leave
|
i'd just have to come back again
|
i've got nowhere to go
|
but to sleep
|
i would shut my eyes but i've got promises to keep
|
well i remember i remember something about her we won
|
i remember i remember something about her we could
|
i've had nothing to do for years but dream
|
i've had nothing to do for years but dream
|
well i done got reckless and i broke my babies rules
|
and i'm sick and restless with the wandering blues
|
most of my friends have gone down the line
|
i'm sitting in town on the proceeds of my crimes
|
i've got nowhere to go but to sleep
|
i would shut my eyes
|
but i've got promises to keep
|
i took my baby to the river and i came back alone
|
this sickness its only a settling in my bones
|
and my daddy's suspicious but i know just how he does
|
he wont find out about it till shes safe in the mud
|
with nowhere to go but to sleep
|
i would follow her down but i've got promises to keep
|
well i remember i remember something about her we were
|
i remember i remember something about her we could be
|
i have nothing to do for years but dream
|
i would had nothing for years but dream
|
