lyrics

Like cold cruel diamonds, your eyes danced with fire
And your suicidal heart, convinced me I was a liar
And your Spanish sorrow, buried deep within your blood
Till your days drift by, and wash away your love.

Like summer flowers held on your wedding day,
I lost your touch, and I lost my way
And I never knew, nor understood,
Why you never got away from those people when you could.

Chorus: And I know that it's been a few years, but if you need me to I will
Take you back to your sister's house, outside of Nashville.
We can leave in the morning, but I think it's best if we go tonight;
You can sleep all the way there, and I'll wake you in the morning light.

Years ago there was a hope left in your eyes,
And years ago I felt I still wanted to try,
Try for what, I never could express
And now I can't remember where I lived when you left.

You were still living in North Park San Diego,
We were young and I was working on the Westside of Chicago,
Forgetting those dreams of watching the oceans turn dark blue,
Riding through Rosarito, in the mist, then cold rain without you.

Repeat chorus.
