I see the sky and wonder why it's blue instead of red. I see a tree that's lost its leaves and wonder why it's dead. And the sun that keeps us warm and fills the day with light.
The snow was falling swiftly and it mounded on the street. Little footprints in the snow made by our children's feet. As I walked into the goodwill store to get some clothes to wear.
So break out the bottle bring on the crowd. Just gather round me cause misery loves a company. I've just left my home friends where I couldn't sleep. For missin' a woman that I couldn't keep.
I see the sky and wonder why it's blue instead of red. I see a tree that's lost its leaves and wonder why it's dead. And the sun that keeps us warm and fills the day with light.
Midnight I've spent another lonely day thinkin' of you. Midnight tomorrow is on its way empty and blue. I'm so lonely so lonely at midnight for you. Midnight oh what a lonely time to weep I ought to know.
I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride. I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide. Which one you want the most them Opry stars or me.
I'm sitting at the table where we used to sit. Thinking of love I knew would never last. Thought I heard the band start playing our favorite song. But it's only lonely mem'ries from the past.
You'll meet many just like me upon life's busy streets. With shoulders stooped and heads bowed down and eyes that stare in defeat. Or souls that live within the past where sorrow plays all parts.
Mendy is sixteen and uncontrolable Mendy is only a child. Mendy is in with the in-crowd Mendy is ever so wild. Mendy's hair hangs straight and long Mendy feels this is a must.
I drifted into Arkansas in the middle of September. I hadn't planned to stay for long just to visit an old friend that I remembered. Quite surprised he asked if I could stay till late October.
Like a bird that's lost its mate in flight I'm alone and oh so blue tonight. Like a piece of driftwood on the sea may you never be alone like me. I believed the lies you told to me when you whispered dear I worship Thee.
Today I burned your old love letters I burned them slowly one by one. Before I'd light the flame I'd read them to try and find the wrong I done. The first you wrote me was the sweetest the last one broke my heart in two.
I've seen lost love make one bend like a willow with its branches blowing in the wind. And I've seen love die leaving some so low and humble with no courage left to try again.
MATTHEW 24. Writer Lonnie Glosson. . I believe the time is coming for the Lord to come again. I believe the end is nearing every door. I believe the good old Bible from beginning to the end.
(Mama's Bible pages trimmed with gold mama's Bible guiding our soul). Mama died years ago left us kids so alone. But before she left she told me son you've got to carry on.
Smokin' cigarettes bar the garden drinkin' coffee by the town. Slowly pullin' my hair out by the rules. Acting funny lookin' at the mirror making faces like a clown.
(A wish that Malena had wings). Malena for hours would run in the meadow well Malena would go to play every day. She chased butterflies and she'd say with the smile.
(Mama mama it's gettin' closer to the end mama mama can I come home again). Where did the years go mama. Why it seemed like only yesterday that we were man and wife.
You say tomorrow you're going. It's so hard for me to believe. I'm making plans for the heartaches. 'Cause you making plans to leave. . The tears for me will be falling.
Oh Milo lives in a funky old house. Downtown near the station. While the big trains rumble under the ground,. somethin's shakin'. . I come from the farm, I raise my corn.
