about

A slow burning Americana song about hanging in there too long

lyrics

Didn't think you'd make it
much beyond thirty
But you kept on breathing
much to our amazement
You thought the needle
was just entertainment
You had a darkness
behind your eyes

My heart, it left there
long before I did

We'd sit in the back yard
You'd see a nice day
But you couldn't feel it
You couldn't feel it
I tried to help you
I called in your family
That didn't go well
You did things your way

My heart, it left there
long before I did

I've got some memories
though my memories are hazy
my memories are hazy
of better times dear
of when you were happy
There was no darkness
behind your eyes

My heart, it left there
Long before I did

Repeat

The End
