Jonatha Brooke West Point
I'm retravelling this lifeline that's so close to home We are on our way to West Point Where your perfect, blond cousin will throw his hat up in the air And we will watch it fall And I'm still the girl that loved you When your eyes were open wide I'm still the girl that wandered on and I'm still the girl that lied 'Cause when I'd tell the truth, you would run and hide But my hands get shaky and I think of all the reasons and I start to drink I get lonely, get depressed, can't sleep well nights, can't get dressed I can't help myself You'll order beer and a sandwich, at the bar at the hotel And you'll want to tell me something Just like every other time And our hopes will rise, And we'll watch them fall You're still written in my days, all the pages coming back to me I will carry you along, singing discreetly Old raincoat, two lives, no boyfriend, no wife Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die here and nobody know But my hands get shaky and I think of all the reasons and I start to drink I get lonely, get depressed, can't sleep well nights, can't get dressed I can't help myself Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die...here.
