When the Music Left Nashville

Never got to the punchline

Waiting for my ride

Another night of peace shuffling

Plainly out of sight

Could I think without tripping?

Could I blink before you were gone?

When the music left Nashville

And everything was lost

Was I just a tool that couldn’t remember?

Was I a thought just lead astray?

Moments I could wish them back

When I held onto a single track

I don’t remember why I let you go

Somethings are left to know

Wiser ways of living

A hope that there is more

Miles of forgiveness, years upon retort
