It's just a simple country song
To sing when you're lonely
It's old and bittersweet
Like a taste of mountain honey
For the love we have known
In the hours that have flown
And all those times
We were crazy
Our lives were lost in perpetual motion
Cheap box of dreams adrift on the ocean
We came so far without compass or bearing
A breath on the wind without reason or meaning
I can hear harmony and chords that chime
With the promise of a new tomorrow
These parts I tried to rhyme
Some were mine and some were borrowed
Secret words whispered low
Of life passing slow
On a melody I stole
From a Blue Jay
Now a still in the air feel the trees breathing
Mist on the hills is finally clearing
Listen hard in the place I am lying
For this is the song you'll hear me singing
