underspent

and too young too

i stumbled onto a picture of you

you wild bitter tale

all cherry oak and tears

as the branches looked in

the summer is done

and we are too, dear

pull back the drape

and let the silent light in

soon i'll be on that highway

and damn this stretch of 99

that takes so many lives

one of them was mine

hand me that lil wallet picture

1985

one more time

the lights of the street

where i'd walk to you at night

were so blindly lit

yeah, there were four little flames

his, mine, and yours,

and the torch in the attic

i woke up late

and kissed you awake

and as you packed up your load,

there was one last look

and then the uhaul broke free

now the ditches are flooded over the backroads

and damn this stretch of 99 that takes so many lives

one of them was mine

hand me that lil wallet picture

1985

one more time

underspent

and too young too

i stumbled onto a picture of you
