lyrics

It's been several years since I decided our fate,
Took my body out of town, left my heart in that state,
Where you're never really sure, are you coming or going?
Where they measure your smile on the teeth that you're showing,

And I've since made my bed in so many a home
That I now rest my head, just to leave it alone,
'Til I catch my flight back, by way of luck or prosperity,
It don't matter 'til then I know there ain't no sense in me,

I don't know why I ever left you Holly,
but I know that I'm not yet used to it,
Sometimes still strain just to hear you calling my name,
But you don't. and I get it.

In the time that has passed, I have managed to age,
In the ways of a man with dry ink on no page,
You think I'd be settled by now, but I'm not,
I'm still thumbin' my way out to all the dreams that I got,

And I'll get 'em I promise,
Hell you gave 'em all to me,
Brought me up with wide eyes and a love for the movies,
And just like back then, I've been waiting on you,
Get me out of here, man, turn me onto something new, yeah

I don't know why I ever left you Holly,
But I know that I'm not yet used to it,
Sometimes still strain just to hear you calling my name,
But you don't, yeah I get it.
