Mike Farley Band - Iowa lyrics

My life's a door and she walked right through it A stranger in an even stranger place I shot a glance as she walked by me That my mind could not erase Anything she longs for could be here But it was her choice to disappear And I'm the only thing she left behind I keep on going, never knowing, if the gates have all been shut I keep on staying, stuck inside my loneliness, while she's in Iowa A cup of coffee, a book to write in She did with long strokes of her pen Shiny auburn hair on the softest ever skin and A face I wanna see again Anything she longs for could be here But it was her choice to disappear And I'm the only thing she left behind I keep on going, never knowing, if the gates have all been shut I keep on staying, stuck inside my loneliness, while she's in Iowa My mind undresses, while she caresses I close my eyes so I can feel For once in my life I've felt this connected And it just might have been for real Anything she longs for could be here But it was her choice to disappear And I'm the only thing she left behind I keep on going, never knowing, if the gates have all been shut I keep on staying, stuck inside my loneliness, while she's in Iowa
