Next To The Last Romantic Lyrics - Josh Ritter

He's riding the plains living up to his name 

As the next to the last true romantic 

He knows that his story is tragic 

But he can't rest 

Til he's next To you 

All the girls know his fame the men curse his name 

And they talk about him like he's magic 

But he's the next to the last true romantic 

And he can't rest 

Til he's next To you

He's stolen hearts like they're horses 

And horses when hearts can't be found 

He keeps riding from one horse to one horse to one horse towns (It gets him down) 

He know's he's a fool to get caught up with you 

But he's the next to the last true romantic 

He can't let go of love once he's had it 

And he can't rest 

Til he's next to you 

There's always whiskey and women and women and whiskey around 

He can't tell which is worse to be dying of thirst or to drown (It gets him down)

So he smiles through the pain he pinch Estelle he dance with Jane 

Sometimes even he don't know how he stands it 

But he's the next to the last true romantic 

And he can't rest 

Til he's next 

To you
