Can't you see I'm holding your flag

The one that you left on the ground

Well is the world too heavy for you

If it makes you feel better, I'll carry it, too

No one's gonna stand in your light

Impressions are easy to fight

But until you turn to me and say

You don't need anyone to carry the weight, I will stay o

[CHORUS:]

Abilene

Bring it on home to me

Abilene

Isn't it good to be free o

Can't you see I'm wearing your shirt

The one with the heart on the sleeve

Everyone can see you've been hurt

But honey don't give up on me

When you gonna make up your mind

When you gonna get out of bed

Well everyday you're gonna find

Broken promises are no worse than words never said

[CHORUS]

Then you want someone to come along and save the day

Well you make it much too hard

[CHORUS]
