Dancers

wink at me in passing
like a spider on a string
they say love is everlasting
is there such a thing?

we are all little dancers
spinning quickly through the wind
while our feet are busy moving
we forget we're supposed to live
we loose all we have to give

and now you stand their smiling
like someone I always knew
and I don't get it
why I'm running straight from you

you give to me your treasures
entrust to me your soul
and I'm so busy dancing
that I keep letting it go

we are all little dancers
spinning quickly through the wind
while our feet are busy moving
we forget we're supposed to live
we loose all we have to give

Old Friends

sideways glances
cut through glass
dark dim romances
fazes come and past

and you sit here
sipping your beer
like we are just old friends
I hear
like it's crystal clear
my heart brake
once again

fast thoughts
in grey decay
it disperses
this minds fowl play

turn over
midnight wake
look over
this isn't going my way

and you sit here
sipping your beer
like we are just old friends
I hear
like it's crystal clear
my heart brake
once again

daily grind
the world unwinds
simple
day to day

we work
we drink
we live
we sink
all over
all over
all over again

and you sit here
sipping your beer
like we are just old friends
I hear
like it's crystal clear
my heart brake
once again

and you sigh
like this is goodbye
but I know
I'll see you again
I'll see you again

not for me
and not for you
no not for you
this is not the end

so you just sit here
sip your fucking beer
we will never be old friends

here we go
yes, here we go
here we go again

Country Songs

I'm listen'n to country songs
and I'm think'n about your face
the way your eyes do smile
when the pains lifted away

Every lyric hits me
like a slap across the face
your my country music heart ache
it won't never go away

Soft slow tunes of love and loss
sweet twangs of better days
drive'n trucks and headed south
the dust flies up
rear mirrors blown out

I'm an Indy rock kinda girl
oh but, baby, not today...
I'm listen'n to country songs
and I'm think'n about your face

I can still hear the sounds of laughter
as the sun sets far away
the shimmers in the water
as we watched our world decay

Now I'm drive'n north on 81
my world's a different place
but, I'm listen'n to country songs
and I'm think'n about your face

Yes, I'm listen'n to country songs
and I'm think'n about your face
