In the dark your skin didn't feel human It was softer, wilder, rougher Like what we were doing You smelled like you'd been working on a railcar full of roses Sweating lilacs and drinking 7 and 7's at the horse track So what is left for me now That you're gone, gone,gone e? Your fingers tangled in mine were moccasin bones
That made their way down my hip And found themselves a home But even when I was with you somehow I was still alone Smelling lilacs and drinking like a lifer At the horse track So what is left for me now That you're gone, gone, gone?
