Wouldn't have been so bad if she had known It would be the last day before you traveled home She found out Tuesday while reading the union news A few weeks too late to say goodbye to you Maybe this world is just spinning too fast Can't see around the corner can't hold on to the past Painting of Jesus and the girl down the hall And all the other faces that hang onto your wall Fly away… Now Wednesday morning I got you on my mind This will be the first year I haven't spent January crying. Well, the world's turned white and the wind is screaming. Got to go to work, got to find some meaning… Time to sit alone and think of you Quiet conversation, simple tribute To small town hotels with nothing much to do Except just sit around and talk with you
