Concrete 03:36
Concrete on the floor, beggars roam for more, just trying to find a little change And it’s just like you said that night to me in October, we’re getting older, we’re getting bolder, we’re getting colder it seems Cocaine and concrete, colliding again, oh that cocaine and concrete Old dogs eyes are getting clouded, seems like my mind is too, stain glass windows are hard to see through And only time can tell what happens for a reason, and that’s when I will lay my troubles down, lay my troubles down Cocaine and concrete colliding again, oh that cocaine and concrete, cocaine and concrete And it seems like we all close our eyes and walk on by without a hi or goodbye, goodbye for now Cocaine and concrete colliding again, oh that cocaine and concrete, cocaine and concrete, cocaine and concrete

Well im waiting over here Im just waiting for you to appear So ill paint this picture in my mind Holding back all the time What I seem to always say Ill just see how things go And the old familiar faces That I don’t even know Different days, different nights All the times I said it right Go on your way that’s all I know And I guess that, I guess that’s all she wrote I guess that’s all she wrote Well Ill head back to Nashville See how things go All those wasted times I cant find the truth on my own Wish to take your hand in mine Spin you around the room a few times And we’ll sing the night away While we plan our escape Different days, different nights All the times I said it right Go on your way that’s all I know And I guess that, I guess that’s all she wrote All she wrote All she wrote

Oh the whispered words that come out of her I can hear them I can feel them I don’t understand Oh the chapel bells they ring and they sing Crying only oh so lonely To talk about As time goes on I don’t feel it any more Anymore oh oh Oh the whispered words Unlock that door Oh and I can tell you’re a wishing well So ill throw my coin on in And wish again Oh and yesterday is gone away And tomorrow is a new day So they say As time goes on I don’t feel it any more Anymore oh oh Oh the whispered words Unlock that door

Along a true and winding path through the trees and down the train tracks, rain streaking on my window reminds me of the tears you didn't show Cause Romeo and Juliette are two different lovers, and banks of blessings have come to the others, I will wait for you I will wait for you I heard something falling in the floor was it my dignity did I leave it at the door, it's hard to believe in something you can't see but you know it's there Cause Romeo and Juliette are two different lovers, and banks of blessings have come to the others, I will wait for you I will wait for you The grass is green with envy, stone cold feet are going no where and over the years I've realized happiness doesn't lie in my possessions eyes Cause Romeo and Juliette are two different lovers, and banks of blessings have come to the others, I will wait for you I will wait for you I will wait for you I will wait for you I will wait for you

Running 03:55
So I walked outta town, to clear my mind Seems to be achin’ all of the time Then I drove till the gas was dry and low Sing that song to save my soul Cowboys and Indians Both just fighting for their kin Oh and now I’m running Running from something again There she goes again With her eyes like some kind of sin Held me down just like that wraith Ill tell you right now I’ve lost all of my faith Cowboys and Indians Both just fighting for their kin Oh and now I’m running Running from something again Fell on Fast to the back of the room Made myself a fist and said this ones for you Played my demons an old familiar song Shook my head and said right on right on Cigarette smoking in the outside wind Hold your breath and hold it in And it seems like all this was just something to pretend And I guess she just played him for a fool in the end

Country Girl 02:22
Country girl, country girl, I need you inside of my world Now more than ever Oh you’re a crazy dreamer, well hey I am too How do you do How you going to get back to me now, how you going to get back to me Oh I wait I beg I plead happily I guess you changed your mind girl, I guess you’ve changed you mind, oh it happens all the time, all the time. Country girl, country girl, I need you inside of my world Now more than ever Oh you’re a crazy dreamer, well hey I am too How do you do I guess your train is leaving town, I guess your headed homebound oh I wait I beg I plead can’t you see I guess you’ve got no time girl, I guess you got no time, for me I know I’m feeling free, finally Country girl, country girl, I need you inside of my world Now more than ever Oh you’re a crazy dreamer, well hey I am too How do you do How do you do
