She's gone. And it's quiet now. Took her mother with her. . Left town. Took her mother's eye. Stole her mother's heart. It's a compromise. . We nurture that part and she's gone.
I hated like the devil. To tell her we were through. I was sure it would break her heart. Tear her world in two. . She is such a fragile thing. Lord, I hate to make her cry.
I have wandered this world far and wide. I've been all around to the other side. But there's nothin' like comin' home. Nothin' like comin' home. . I wanna sit on my front porch.
