Paul Eason - Abilene lyrics

The stars up here don't burn as bright Nothin seems the same I wake up to the same old place It don't ever change I can see those night we used to watch The fireflies dancin round If I close my eyes in no time at all I'm back in that old town In my heart I'm in Abilene Where life don't treat you quite so mean It's you and me on a front porch swing Watchin the sun go down Can't you feel the summer breeze Blowin through the gra** so green Though I'm sittin here in Tennessee In my heart I'm in Abilene Lately when I talk to you I can't remember why I'm gone But it don't matter anyhow
