Long Lost Smile
|
|
She squeezed the handle, topped the tank off
|
Pulled out her necklace and kissed the cross
|
|
El Paso he waved, horizon off the hood
|
She's going through with something
|
He never thought she would
|
|
By now he's rolling over on his back
|
He ain't waking up
|
Not with all the liquors he's had
|
|
She'll be halfway to Longview by the time he starts to stir
|
By the time he opens his eyes she'll already be a blur
|
|
You go girl, get in that Cadillac
|
There ain't no lie in looking back
|
|
She tore outta that station
|
Dust and gravel flying
|
Sideswiped a couple of highway signs
|
Tore off both mirrors
|
Something free and wild
|
Yeah, seems like ages but there's that smile
|
That long lost smile
|
|
Staring through the windshield
|
A new look in her eyes
|
A conscience as clear as the Texas sky
|
|
She ran out of patience, out of strength
|
And out of tears
|
He ran out of second chances
|
And now she's outta here
|
|
You go girl, don't look back
|
And there ain't no lie in living like that
|
|
She tore outta that station
|
Dust and gravel flying
|
Sideswiped a couple of highway signs
|
Tore off both mirrors
|
Something free and wild
|
Yeah, seems like ages but there's that smile
|
That long lost smile, tthat long lost smile
|
Yeah, you go girl, you go girl
|
Hey, you go girl
|
You go girl
|
