I die when you walk by so beautiful and strong. Each day you pass my way. In your bubble where nothin' goes wrong. . You think your youth, a permanent truth.
The only thing that I could ever feel. I can't believe it wasn't real. The only thing that I could ever feel. I can't believe it wasn't real. . You can't open your mouth without telling a lie.
I know you've tried. I know you've cried. I know you've died. A little inside but. . Baby, you could be famous. You could see your marble face all around.
It was the army train that took her daddy from her. It was the Bible train that took her momma too. And that high loud whistle made her horse run away.
"Caution, to prevent electric shock do not remove cover. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel". . Let this be the epitaph for my heart.
Don't look away, I don't think I could stand it. So don't look away 'cause my heart couldn't handle it. There's a fire in your eyes and it's melting the ice.
Sometimes the road is too long. You meet all kinds of people. Some of them cast no shadow. They have no reflections. Take a look in your photo book. I'm not there anymore.
I should have forgotten you long ago. But you're in every song, I know. Whining and pining is wrong and so. On and so forth, of course, of course. But no, you can't have a divorce.
Some roads are only seen at night. Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs. But some nights the neon gas gets free. Turns into walking dead like me. . And I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.
I've seen you laugh at nothing at all. I've seen you sadly weeping. The sweetest thing I ever saw. Was you asleep and dreaming. . Well, you may not be beautiful.
Sad as a painted clown, a beautiful boy in an ugly town. But when your circus closes down, don't walk away from me. You've been asleep too long, the birds are bruises in the dawn.
I have a mandolin, I play it all night long. It makes me want to kill myself. I also have a Dobro, made in some mountain range. Sounds like a mountain range in love.
