Kentucky Avenue - Ballad of the Past

It's too late
Has it come to this
Walking in circles
Trying to get out of this mess
All those secrets
You keep close to your vest
Stop making me wonder
Stop making me guess

You bring the whiskey
I'll bring the wine
Tie up the horses and we'll swallow up the time
Thrown the baby out with the bath
We're still living with the ballad of the past

We lick our lips
Don't let the words run dry
Take a walk through the shadows
Crawl to the corners of our minds
You found a reason
I found another lie
Turn the volume up to the voices in the sky

You bring the whiskey
I'll bring the wine
Tie up the horses and we'll swallow up the time
Thrown the baby out with the bath
We're returning to the ballad of the past

We have to wonder
Have love and war been fair
Listen up hear the voices in the air
Sit up straight now, we'll settle fair and square
Fair and square

You brought the whiskey
I brought the wine
Tie the horses up, turn the pages on our pride
Blow out the candle, put down the good old book
Give me your hands now and give me that good old look
Though we threw the baby out with the bath
We'll keep singing to the ballad of the past
