Abilene lyrics

Keep my cash in the floorboards
And cherish the time
You made me a map
So I could find what’s mine

They tell me that I look like my mama now
Don’t think I’d change and I wouldn’t know how
Buried treasure and a willow tree
When we were
Back in Abilene

I got the crystal
And Brother got the guns
Both a little mixed-up
But it’s somethin’ to own
Wish we could go back and never leave
That change of scene changed everything
Pearl necklace and your wedding ring
Left for me
Back in Abilene

Dig my hands in the earth
Where tangled roots run
Desperate for a landline
And a clear way home

I got your memory and it’s got me
But it don’t fill up where you should be
Marsalis Drive and your alleyway
Can’t take me back
Back to Abilene

Lonely Alone lyrics

I looked down the bar and said
I think I’d rather be dead than lonely
You cracked a smile so I asked if you wanted to dance
As the slow song played, you said
I’m just as afraid of being lonely
I thought I might have had half a chance

On the ride out to my place,
the look on your face was hopeful
That luck wouldn’t be the stranger it had always been
I turned the radio low, and said
Let’s take it slow, how about it?
You flashed that sweet smile of yours again

Even if the fire don’t light
Or burn so bright
Neither one of us has to be lonely alone tonight
Even if we don’t take flight
Or glide like a summer kite
Neither one of us has to be lonely alone tonight

Maybe in twenty years
if we set aside our fears of being lonely
We’ll find out we make just about the perfect pair
Though it’s true we might get to feeling blue
We’ll know it’s only
‘Cause remember all the loneliness we had to bear
