John Calvin Abney - Souvenir Waltz
Souvenir WaltzI've got souvenirs,
all shapes and size,
with one, a promise,
a return was on the rise.
now, I still buy them,
don't get me wrong,
I just save them for someone,
who's there when I'm gone.
Look up at the sky,
call down those stars,
remember those days, in the Oklahoma rain,
when it was all ours.
Green country blues,
Red state roll on,
if I left tonight,
I'd be there before dawn.
But ain't a thing there,
and time is my wealth,
so until the minutes take me,
take care of yourself.
Look up at the sky,
call down those stars,
remember those days, in the Oklahoma rain,
when it was all ours.
We split the difference,
we killed compromise,
in love and in war,
in the whites of your eyes,
There was a vision,
a soft golden pale,
like the fog of the morning,
on the walls of a jail.
Look up at the sky,
call down those stars,
remember those days, in the Oklahoma rain,
when it was all ours.
It's a long time gone.
It's a long time gone.
It's a long time gone.
It's a long time gone.
