When They're Gone (lyle County) Lyrics - I'm A Fire - David Nail

Look at that worn out rusty engine 

sittin there beggin for a spark 

don't look like much in that condition 

but there was time you should have seen her run 

down every backroad in Lyle County 

under every streetlight up on Main 

you're sitting there drummin on a dashboard 

both of us fallin like a fickle rain 

We were 

cooler than December 

hotter than July young and strong 

some things aren't meant to last forever 

but that don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone 

So come on 

She had hair tangled as a kudzu 

legs as long as the trails that cut through 

goes back acres to the riverbend 

she had her Daddy's temper and her Momma's flair 

made people talk but did not care 

try anything once, ain't scared of nothin' 

Yeah we were 

cooler than December 

hotter than July young and strong 

And some things aren't meant to last forever 

But that don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone 

So come on (so come on) 

Don't mean you forget em 

I still ride down those old roads 

even if it's in my mind 

tight blue jeans and winding curves 

keep me turning on a dime, yeah just like the time 

When we were 

cooler than December 

hotter than July young and strong 

some things aren't meant to last forever 

but that don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone 

No we were 

cooler than December 

hotter than July young and strong 

some things aren't meant to last forever 

but that don't mean you forget 'em when they're 

don't mean you forget em when they're gone 

So come on (so come on) 

Don't mean you forget em when they're gone 

So come on (so come on) 

Don't mean you forget em when they're gone 

So come on (come on)
