Reach for the Sun

You got a lot you’re running from
A good spirit gets stung
You got the strings you got the drum
You got a heart that needs a strum
I think we had a way
I would have seen you to the grave
I hope that you’ll be alright
I hope that isn’t a lie
You'll run yourself ragged
You'll reach for the sun
When it all comes crashing
Sometimes it’s just better
Sometimes you can bury the hatchet, see things clearly, get your love back
but sometimes it’s just time to say goodbye
When I see you years from now
When it’s our kids wonderin’ how
It’ll be like yesterday
Tomorrow’s coming but it won’t stay
You'll run yourself ragged
You'll reach for the sun
When it all comes crashing
Sometimes it’s just better
Sometimes you can bury the hatchet, see things clearly, get your love back
but sometimes it’s just time to say goodbye
You got the strings you got the drum
You got a heart that needs a strum

Salty with the Morning

She said I might be crazy
But boy I’ll love you so
I stepped right up and took the bet
And that is all she wrote
A few years later I was working from 9 to 9
She was at home
writing alone
and praying for peace of mind
You got salty with the morning
You got angry with the day
When finally the sun went down
You’ll sink into the seat with nothing left to say
Nothing left to fight the hurt away
Your book didn’t sell
Traffic was hell
You smoked by the fire
Said you were fine, but half past 9 I thought I heard you cry
The kettle burned your fingers
And you went walking by moonlight
I heard some wolves howling’
And prayed that you were fine
You got salty with the morning
You got angry with the day
When finally the sun went down
You’ll sink into the seat with nothing left to say
Nothing left to fight the hurt away
When you took off for Kansas
You said boy I’ll see you soon
That was five months ago
And I don’t know
When you’re coming home
When you arrive
I’ll wait inside and build the fire up
You don’t have to talk babe, you’ve already said enough
You got salty with the morning
You got angry with the day
When finally the sun went down
You’ll sink into the seat with nothing left to say
Nothing left to fight the hurt away

Summer Queen

Dress spins a circle
Leaves a scar
I’m coming down now
In love withdrawal
You kissed me softly
Looked in my eye
Moon lit up your face
And then you said goodbye
You’re a summer queen
Just a stubborn dream
You’re a summer queen
And you’re slaying me
Sweet talk like syrup
On my soul
Your drug was killer
But it’s getting old
I never said no
I just asked for space
I’ll close my eyes now
And hope you say grace
You’re a summer queen
Just a stubborn dream
You’re a summer queen
And you’re slaying me
All my love
All my love
All my love
All my love
