[00:00.000]
[00:42.520]She lifts her skirt up to her knees
[00:45.830]Walks through the garden of roses with her bare feet laughing
[00:54.130]I never learned to count my blessings
[00:57.620]I choose instead to dwell in my disasters
[01:06.510]I walk on down the hill
[01:09.200]Through grass grown tall and brown
[01:12.440]And still it's hard somehow to let go of my pain
[01:18.760]On past the busted back and
[01:21.590]Of that old and rusted Cadillac
[01:24.110]That sinks into this field collecting rain
[01:29.830]Will I always feel this way?
[01:41.410]So empty, so estranged
[01:58.870]Of these cutthroat busted sunsets
[02:02.260]These cold and damp white mornings I have grown weary
[02:10.250]If through my cracked and dusty dime store lips
[02:14.210]I spoke these words out loud would no one hear me
[02:22.340]Lay your blouse across the chair
[02:25.930]Let fall the flowers from your hair
[02:28.710]And kiss me with that country mouth so plain
[02:34.690]Outside the rain is tapping on the leaves
[02:38.630]To me it sounds like they're applauding us
[02:42.330]The quiet love we‘ve made
[02:46.420]Will I always feel this way?
[02:58.810]So empty, so estranged
[03:45.550]Well I looked my demons in the eyes
[03:48.980]Laid bare my chest said do your best destroy me
[03:57.190]See I've been to hell and back so many times
[04:01.530]I must admit you kinda bore me
[04:09.420]There's a lot of things that can kill a man
[04:12.510]There's a lot of ways to die
[04:15.090]Yes and some already dead who walk beside me
[04:21.310]There's a lot of things I don't understand
[04:24.140]Why so many people lie
[04:26.950]Well it's the hurt I hide that fuels the fire inside me
[04:33.330]Will I always feel this way?
[04:45.020]So empty, so estranged
